    TW Button backmark

    Does anyone have any info on this back mark? I can't find anything on it. Looks like "TV" but it is actually "TW". It's a small shirt type button.

    Thanks,

    Jeff

    sure looks like "TV" Jeff . it may have been a silver smith testing out a new stamp punch .

    Dan I have to admit that it really does look like a "TV" . I had convinced myself that the first leg of the "W" was missing. But I think you are correct.
