#153. Highly collectible! 17th c. Gilded silver, enamel and gemstones. Smuggler’s buttons have a center part that unscrews from the shank to reveal a secret smuggling compartment but the posts of the screw are delicate. The shank turns, but we have not opened this one because it’s tight. If the screw gets stripped you would not be able to put the button back together again. Pinch mark on the shank. NBS Medium (7/8” W)
Session 5 - ending time 7:30pm EST
