Early English silver button, hand engraved and decorated with the initials JC, amongst scrolls of foliage. Flat back and thick shank. Backmarked with the maker’s initials FM and the lion for sterling silver. No Assay office stamp, nor date letter, so probably 18th century or very early 19th. Good size and charming decoration. Very nice collectable.

Size 1.2” (3.1 cm)
