19th Foot (North Yorkshire Regiment) Copper / Brass Tunic Button, c.1830 - 1855
Circa 19.5mm in diameter, fixed shank, maker marked "Nutting London". Closed back button made from a copper alloy / brass.
Apparently a crown was added above the 19 on the post 1820 examples and given this is closed back, it would date it from 1830 - 1855.
See also my item 64835 for an earlier pattern.
