Got out for the day and got absolutely soaked...but it felt nice after all the humidity. A couple interesting buttons to show for it. The Regent button is posted in What Is It because I've never seen another button like this. The other button that I found interesting has an Eagle and Anchor backmark...is this a military button? I've never seen that before either. Also managed several flat buttons, a few musketballs, a musket trigger guard and a Canada Militia button. All in all it was a good hunt!

A nice assortment of old buttons in that group.Any body else have found a Regent button?
 

few firsts are worth a soaking.
I never seen that canadian militia before either, and I'd be quite happy with that one.
 

Nice button and relic score! Congrats! How rare would the Regent button be?

I've been wearing my Google fingers down and can't find another Regent button. I love finds that make me scratch my head...
 

its a button bonanza!, great finds!, great post!

thats a great score of buttons and relics, nice work
 

Never seen a Regent button before, but if I had to guess, I'm thinking its an early type of Livery Button.

Uh-oh...if you've never seen one before I don't thing there's much hope for finding out much more. Livery button it is...
