Modern Police Service uniform clothing buttons tend to be Chromium-plated - this is shown as Chrome in our button catalogues. Older Police Force uniform buttons are made from White Metal (abbreviated to WM in our button catalogues). Some senior Police officers buttons may be silver-plated; particularly those from British colonial police forces. Older Constabulary uniform buttons might also be made from black horn or black plastic - these tend to be for police capes or overcoats; particularly those worn at night.
To help collectors: 'Ripley' reference numbers are shown from the book 'Police Forces of Great Britain and Ireland - their Amalgamations and their Buttons'. By Howard Ripley (1983).
Button diameters are shown in millimetres, measured to the nearest half-millimetre.
