Bespoke silver buttons.
Here's something to think about. Simple, flat, silver buttons can be had for a few dollars each. Engraving one's monogram adds a few dollars more to the cost. So, say that your buttons have cost you $15 each, all in. There are what--14-- large buttons on a Prince Charlie coatee? Plus another 5 buttons if you add in the waistcoat (3) and epaulettes (2). So, for something around $300 (less than a buck a day) you can have custom silver buttons on your jacket.
A gentleman would have it no other way.
