DSM is correct although we would describe it as a Hunt button

So, some Victorian chap from England lost his button during the Gold Rush? Or was he a bloke?
Thanks for the info. I like my new button and its history.

I am slowly learning the nuances of our shared language, and said that you are correct buddy, just thought I was able to offer a little more information. Perhaps better Google results If I searched Victorian Hunt buttons for examples.

I agree ! The more info and search options is always better.
I wasn't able to find a match online but feel like I've seen that one somewhere.
