Cannon Crown Button

[undertaker]

I purchased this button for a few bucks to add to my old button collection. Can anyone tell me anything about it. It is about the size of a quarter and does have makers name on back but I can't read it. Im guessing it's British but have no clue of the approximate age.

British Royal Artillery button. Not sure on a date, but I Have seen them up till the 1940's. We will narrow that date down for you.

Thanks for the info. After a better look I can read the word London on the back. The other words or word will probably be readable with some cleaning. I can't see any words or the word canada on the bottom.

I can finally make out the name. Firmin & Sons LD London. From a web site I found it appears to be early 20th century time period.
