[QUOTE="Balmain Bob, post: 609347, member: 739"] The buttons from post 6 are Aboriginal Mounted Police Buttons Here is a link [url]https://archaeologyonthefrontier.com/2020/09/03/buttons/[/url] The Aboriginal Mounted Police Units are a big of hidden history the NSW Gov, woukd like the keep quite about. Basically the government of the day employed the Aboriginal Police to assist with the white settlers moving onto local indigenous lands. The Units were not local tothe areas that were being settled and just eliminated any opposition to the white settlers. I came across this hidden history while too researching a button that I detercted and the Common at Hill End a few years ago, I found one of the first pictued buttons [/QUOTE]
