Gold Military buttons with a rear shank for fixing. Made from non-ferrous metal with a domed surface and hollow back. Each button weights approx. 3 grams to 5 grams.  The 3D design features a Lion above a crown with a Latin inscription “Fide Et  Fiducia” which translates to “In Faith and Trust”. This is a British Army motto and features on the Badge of the Royal Army Pay Corps since 1878.

The colour has been described as “gold” but the real color of the button may be slightly different from the pictures shown which is caused by many factors such as brightness of your monitor and light brightness.

These Gold Military are ideal for coats, jackets blazers and military costumes but are also suitable for all sewing and knitting projects.

Available in two sizes – 18mm (28L) and 20mm (32L)

We also stock a larger button but the gold tone colouring is brighter – 23mm Military Button

Shank buttons have a hollow protrusion on the back through which thread is sewn through to attach the button to the cloth. See our full range of military shank buttons

Helpful Tips

For button size, please measure the outer largest diameter.  For domed buttons, it is easier to measure the diameter across the back of the button.

Sewing buttons is very easy once you get the hang of it. It’s a very useful skill to possess, as buttons do fall off. We have a useful tutorial which shows how to sew a shank button
