Within a raised circular border on a lined background is a pre-1901 crown above a fouled anchor where the rope goes over the right-hand side of the stock, under the shank and than over the shank and then trails under the right-hand arm similar to buttons in use between 1827 - 1834 for Captain, Commanders, Masters, Surgeons, Pursers and Midshipmen.
Five of the buttons have a rope twist edge. Within a raised circular border on a lined background is a pre-1901 crown above a fouled anchor where the rope goes under the right-hand side of the stock, over the shank and than under the shank and then trails under the right-hand arm similar to buttons in use between 1843 - 1891 for Commanders, Masters, Surgeons, Pursers, Midshipmen and Warrant officers.
One button has a rope twist edge. Within a raised circular border on a lined background is a pre-1901 crown above a fouled anchor where the rope goes under the left-hand side of the stock, over the shank and than under the shank and then trails over the left-hand arm. The design is similar to the medical branch circa 1825 though a snake is used in place of a rope.
