Agree, many were not marked. Even ones made back in the original days in the 1750s. But if you'll post a pic, we can take a look and possibly get...
Thank you very much!
Thanks Cheryl for your reply! Yes I WAS serious all along. Maybe it's time to leave this board. But I really appreciate your last reply! Thanks!
Hmmm....and asking where I can get one is not asking for help?! No problem!
Ya'll need to get your minds out of the gutter! Stud button! As in collar buttons! I need one of those 1892 collector's boxes!

I know it's been a while but what did you do with the one with the screw back? And what was it on the front? It was the last one in the #3 group.
