    Civil War Robinson Extra button with script "BP" on front

    Hi,

    I found this button along with some Civil War era navy buttons and GAR buttons at a local estate sale. This one has me baffled. I cannot figure out what "BP" could stand for. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Eddie

    I was think that "BP" in that lettering stood for British Pound but need to know what the backmark says
