Button values???

[jhamner]

I have a friend who wants to buy these two old C.W. buttons of mine, but I don't know a fair market value for them, especially considering the condition of the Franklin College. If you have heard of any of these being sold or know the values of them, I sure could use some help! Thanks.

1. Franklin College Scovill backmark, no shank, very worn condition.
2. North Carolina seal, some silver gilt, (faint) Goldsboro Rifles backmark.

The Franklin College button is one of the tougher buttons to get from the south. Condition is everything, but even with ground action and a push to the face, it is a desirable button. It's one of those "what the market will bear" things.
