Hi Dean,

Some very nice buttons there - thanks for showing.

For your info, I have attached a couple of photos of The British German Legion and British Swiss Legion buttons.

A large Gilt Button to the British German Legion, circa 1855-1856.
Diameter : 23.3mm
Backmark : FIRMIN & SONS . 153 STRAND LONDON .


A medium sized British Swiss Legion button, circa 1855-1856.
(Button look to be dug with damage and wear to the front with small hole at about 6-O-Clock)
Diameter : 20.2mm
Backmark : (none)

Cheers

Ian
