Thag collar button is very cool, have never seen one before, great find!
Thanks Chris

When I was reading about them they said after awhile they started electroplating them with gold, I bet your copper ones were those? At first when it was all covered in dirt I thought I had some kind of board game piece. Thanks park pirate.............

That's cool , I've seen them on books I may have one but I think it's brass over copper ? Hh gl
Again, I bet plated with gold years ago, thanks.

I loved reading about the history of the company as much as seeing the button. Well done on both the find and the research.
