Unidentified button - E Jones and son, Corkhill, Dublin
 
Hi there,

My Grandad has a button which he would like help identfying.

It was made by E Jones and son, Corkhill, Dublin. E Jones was making buttons at Cork Hill , Dublin from 1815 to 1832. The button has a crown on the top half and a 'D' on the bottom half.

Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated!

An image of the button would be helpful.

There is a letter D below the crown in the image. It was Found in Ireland.

Looks like a livery button relating to landed gentry or similar.

Dave.
