Hi Btns,
Nice bit of detective work there, tracking down the backmark. :D No idea on usage of that design of button though. Cheers Ian |
Yes, thanks for the warning.
So far button collectors are relatively safe from the fakers (unlike badge collectors). There are a few out there but they are either fairly obvious fakes or well known. Hopefully we can keep one another up to date if more fakes appear on the market. Roger |
