Uniform Buttons 2

Image 1
Hammond Turner & Sons
Two piece
This is almost certainly the officers’ version of the button in image 4, this gallery
Button 158
Image 2
Hammond Turner & Dickinson
One piece, gilded
This splendid naval button came from an ebay seller in Canada and still retains a lot of shine. The backmark is image 19 in that gallery
Button 166
Image 3
Hammond Turner & Sons
Two piece
This appears to be the same button as image 11, above: I am clearly getting very forgetful and buying duplicate buttons!
Button 167
Image 4
Hammond Turner & Sons
Two piece
The ebay seller suggested that the entwined letters are V and R – what do you think?
The ‘natural light’ photo was taken with the button ‘upside down’ to the normal orientation to enhance the lettering.
