I dug up this button back in April of this year. I thought is was just a plain flat button
and stuck it in my shirt pocket and kept searching. When i was done curiosity got to me
an i made the mistake of rinsing it with water and rubbing it . And thats when i seen the
gilt on the back. As soon as i got home i used aluminum jelly and realized i rubbed a
lot of the gilt off earlier :(
Well, i looked in Alberts Button Book and there it was .... 20mm wide PC 81 RV250 :o
Front - plain Back reads - Andrew Jackson March 4AD 1829
What i'd like to know is .....

1. What does RV250 mean ?
2. Is it a rare button and if so .... how rare ?
3. In this poor condition is it worth anything ?
