RANGERS BUTTONS. Both buttons are excavated and are missing their shanks. Albert identifies these buttons as LC-9 in the Loyalist Corps section of his book. The Loyalists were American colonists who fought on the British side during the American Revolution. Both buttons boldly read "BUTLERS RANGERS". CONDITION: the coat button has a slight bend in the upper left quadrant. It has a pleasing, gray patina but has a significant blister in the front caused by the iron shank that was in the rear. The cuff button has an overall gray patina with no significant losses. As stated, both buttons are missing their shanks. PROVENANCE: Luis F. Emilio estate collection. (02-23227-9/BF). $2,000-3,000.
