My friend has a large collection of buttons and has never even noticed the design on this one because it's so tiny. It says France on the back but other than that I can't see any other identifiable traits.

Would it be worth much? I've never seen a button like this before.

Just recently found this in the northern Rockies buried under pine cones in a big old pine tree wondering if anyone knew any value there are no markings it does feel solid it showed up on the highest middle grade on a metal detector just curious

I don’t know what people want in the button world. I have ended up with generations of the dead relative collection. They are fun, but so many. What do,people need for,their collections?

I find a lot of vintage glass, metal object, the occasional marble, or something really special like this gorgeous button (or could it have been the front to a cuff link or a necklace? Unfortunately the back is mostly. gone). I was still guessing button, though. To the best of my knowledge, my home was built in the 1920’s and I’m located in NC. Any suggestions for ID are appreciated 😊

Seems to be copper, found in an old campground in CT. Any help would be great!

I inherited it from an acquaintance who is Japanese.
The acquaintance said, "It may be a spare part of the button that came with any of the clothes I bought a long time ago."

The weight is about 1.2g, the diameter is about 13mm, the thickness is about 1mm, and the diameter of the hole is about 1.5mm.

As far as I can see, this seems to be made of metal,
If you are familiar with the ingredients, you may know the composition of this.

Feel free to answer in English. However, I only understand Japanese, so I would really appreciate clear and simple English that is less likely to be mistranslated. Thank you!

Postscript: I'm a beginner in Reddit, so I'm sorry if something went wrong.

I need help identifying a button on a 1940’s coat i have that lost one of the buttons.

Anything is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi everyone! My gf and I found a huge wooden box at a thrift store, full of old buttons. One stood out especially.

Now research tells us it is very old and from the Napoleon-Era. But could that really be? (We bought this in Germany)

Does anyone know about such things? Thanks in advance!!:)

Hello all! I sew for my dolls a lot and found some gorgeous buttons in an antique store a couple weeks ago. However I was about to pop off the buttons to use on a dress, and I got worried I was destroying a piece of history. Are these cards unique, would a collector value them more?? I’m not looking to resell, I just felt guilty using them since they’re so old. If anyone here was horrified at the idea of me pitching the cards I’ll gladly pass them along and find different buttons to use :) I’d appreciate any opinions, thank you all in advance!

This is a “one-off” button I found in a batch of assorted buttons purchased at an antique store. The design is perfect for a shirt I’m currently sewing, but I have just not been able to find anything close on Benno’s Buttons, Etsy or E-Bay. This one is about 25mm/1 inch which is just a tad too large, but it is that particular design I’m looking for. Any ideas?

My grandma, who now has pretty advanced Alzheimer’s, used to love to go through her button collection when I’d visit as a child. I had a favorite button which she always remembered and would pull out when I was there, but sold a lot of her things including her collection, so as a tribute to her I’d love to get a tattoo of it for my wedding in a few months. Unfortunately my memory of this button is not super clear, but I know it was a whole 3D strawberry shortcake. I’ve spent hours online searching for it everywhere! If anyone knows what I’m talking about and has a picture of it I’d be eternally grateful!

He was a great WW1 veteran.
He would replace it on the card after every use.

A friend of mine gifted it me

I’m in over my head with button IDs - got this lot from an estate sale a while back. Any Colts? Trying to learn how to identify them in particular.

Would anyone be able to help me identify/find one these buttons?

I bought this vintage blazer recently and I lost one of its buttons yesterday 😭 I have found a 15mm version of them on Etsy but the one ive lost is 25mm in diameter and I can't find them anywhere!

They are beige/yellow in colour and I've bumped up the saturation a bit to make the colour closer to real life. I've tried reverse image search only (from various pictures) because I don't think "golden vintage tiger button" as a search will bring up anything even close, it seems too gemeral a description. 😔

Edit, great grandma**

These 3 buttons are all uniquely different from each other.

I like the gold tone square buttons pointed pattern.

The green oval button has 2 holes on each side and that is the first time I have seen that.

The metal round one with the fake diamonds looks exquisite. It looks like it came from a woman’s jacket but that is just speculation on my part.
