    It is by far my best the more people contact me about its really starting to sink just how rare this thing is. John Adams GGG grandson contacted me and wanted to post images on his site and that is way cool to me.
    Best finds GW Button and John Adams Cufflink.

    Thanks I had some calling it a button too. I just thought it was a cuff link as it is so small.... One place said it might be the same maker who made the GW buttons but that not a proven fact though.. I hope more info comes to light thanks for posting what you found on it...
