A very rare division one aluminum button

Item Details

Description

1 Large 19th century paisley patterned pearl background button.
This button dates to a time when aluminum was actually more expensive than gold, yes you heard that correctly, more expensive than gold. So you can imagine the scarcity of these as not many were created. This example is aluminum, finished with a tortoise shell looking tint, and is then enhanced with a pearl background behind the pierced SCARCE PAISLEY design. This is an example to not pass up as it hits so many good competitive areas. Great overall condition too.

Issued: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918
Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above
