Kev in Deva Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Hallo Gentlemen Please excuse me if I have placed these items in the wrong area, not sure where they belong and feel free to relocate it you wish to do so.The items are three, steel uniform buttons, with a diameter of 27mm, to the front a head and shoulders portrait of a lady, around the edge the following words: IMP . HUN BOH. REG M. THERESIA DGR:The rear is plain except for a fixing hoop to sew the buttons to the jacket.Any opinions would be welcome.Kevin in Deva.
Mike Dwyer Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 Kev,Can't ID the buttons, I'm afraid, but I believe the inscription and portrait refer to Maria Theresa, Holy Roman Empress, Archduchess of Austria, Queen of Hungary and Bohemia, lived 1717-1780.
