What is the accepted name for the piece on the back of buttons that is used to attach it to clothing, ferrule, loop?
If the loop is a floating style, ie it can move in its mounting, is this considered modern, 20th century?
When did buttons start being assembled as 2 piece, ie pressed together?
Found what I "think" might be an old militia button in my back yard! Canadian Militia. Has a Kings Crown design on it. Sorry, no pics.
Thanks for any info/help.
