Could it be a MS & JD instead of TD?

It is a British made button.

Congrats as that is very cool.


SWEET ID, Thank you very much Ron .you are absolutly right, it is a J
MS & JD thought the bottom of the J was just a dot next to a T, but it is a J ... Yes
Very cool , that is very interesting.
Thank you Bullet, and Ron for the ID help.
