Button ID Anyone?

[Swartzie]

Found this button around an old home site. Mid-Late 1800's. I believe the backmark reads "rich gold color".
Thanks for looking.

Beauty... it's a "flower" button once covered in gold gilt - early to mid 1800s. The pattern and quality-mark "rich gold color" helps date it. Nice find!

Looks like space for 'Colour' so most likely British, its manufacturing reminds me of the 1830s livery button, so probably a similar date.

Nice button

Looks much like the one Giant056 found.

Well done, so I was wrong about the Colour spacing, maybe it was the dot I was looking at
