You might want to look at this:-
Hi Griff, The "PYC" button is listed in the Bosley's Button Auction on 15th Feb 2006 (lots : 509, 510 & 511). It is described as : "Perthshire Yeomanry Cavalry Officer's plated ball pattern coatee button. Firmin & Co London. Circa 1794 - 1820." Cheers Ian In their early existence the Pembs Yeo were generally referred to as the Castlemartin Yeo. Hope that helps. Last edited by 41st; 03-05-20 at 06:10 PM. |
