Item Description
1.75" w/W. F. Miller back paper and "Ehrman Mfg. Co. Boston" on curl. A golden eagle perched atop an American shield w/three arrows at right. Vivid fresh color, sharp details and only light surface wear under magnification. NM displaying Mint. A choice specimen. While many 1908 designs were issued for both candidates this particular design was only produced featuring Taft. We consider this among the most beautiful portrait buttons ever produced; size, color, rarity, condition- this button checks all the boxes.
