Description: | A Post Medieval silvered copper-alloy military button. Within a wreath the buton shows the initial D over the letter X.Steve Newman comments:This is a beautiful and very rare example of a button of the 10th Dragoons. As they became Light Dragoons in 1783 we can date this therefore fairly accurately to 1770-1783.I have only seen a few examples in collections and not one found before so certainly on the rare side.
