interesting button! let's see it cleaned up!
 
Nice colonial pewter Joe! I would just use a toothpick on it. That crude can be tough to get off without damaging the pewter :BangHead:
 
Very nice! Almost looks like something might have gone in the middle of it :dontknow: This is a first for me, never seen a pewter button - the design is really cool.
 
Very Nice ;D
looks similar to a maltese cross :icon_scratch:
Ornate pewters are quite a rare find, Congrats :thumbsup:
 
Ive never seen a pewter with a design like that.. seems like it could have some significance :dontknow:
 
Cool looking,(looks small) will have to see when you get the back cleaned up around the shank.Reminds me of a cuff link button I found (that was pewter I've since urethaned)but mine had a drilled eye shank & the large copper connect link you would normally see on cuff links. :icon_scratch:
Take Care,
Pete, :hello:
