Default Button

Leslie, It is a "Coat of Arms" depection of some type. I have not been able to locate the exact coat of arms but it is very possible that the button may have come from a Hunting Jacket or Sportsman's jacket. I have seen many of these used on those garmets before. I will continue to attempt to locate the coat of arms I.D and I'll let you know when I do.
