I dug this button yesterday in an area where the town spread a bunch of fill a few years back. I believe it is a police button made in Cheshire, Connecticut. Based on the plain font on the back, I am guessing it dates from the 1890s to early 1900s. It cleaned up real nice, and has lots of gilt remaining. If anyone has any information about the maker (perhaps the Cheshire Manufacturing Company?) or age, I would love to hear it. Thanks and good luck out there.
