P- Pewter G- Gold Plated S- Silver Plated B- Brass Plated
*All shanks are wire just like the originals. Cast shanks cut threads, damage the cloth of the uniform, and force the button to sit on an odd angle. There is a reason they made them with wire historically.
(Image colours vary from lighting and oxidation. Some buttons like gaiter buttons were not photographed.)
