1789 George Washington Inauguration Button

Item Details

Description

Here is another George Washington inaugural button that appears to be in copper. Some speculate that this button is from his 2nd inauguration and is very nice. The top around the outer edge of the button reads Long Live The President with the letters GW in a cartouche in the center. Nice patina from years of handling, but no longer retains the shank. Approx measures 1 3/8"
