A Couple Of Rare/Early Buttons

[Roy]

Hi Gents,

I just had these two beauties come in, quite rare, so thought I would share.

The Jamaica Militia button is one I know little about, so will have to do some research. The Flintshire Militia button is I believe scarce as I find all Welsh Militia buttons to be especially thin on the ground.

Cheerio,

Great stuff Roy & a pleasure to see. I have most of a Georgian ORs pewter button to the Flint Militia which I’ll dig out & take a photo of for you.
Hwyl,

you got that Jamaica for a good price Roy. I think the Flintshire are scarce but gettable ive seen a few officer buttons for sale and a few other ranks. As you say some of the welsh ones are hard.

[Roy]

Thanks Chaps,

I was surprised at the price of the Jamaica too.

Kevin, can't wait to see the pics mate.

Cheerio,

Roy

this is the other ranks version to the one Roy is showing

[Roy]

Very nice indeed gents,

I find OR's buttons from this period are almost impossible to find, so nice to see.

Cheerio,

Roy
