Dug out near Riga.

Dug out among German trenches and in bunkers on Christmas Battles battlefield without soldier. Great item for any collector. That was the place of one of the craziest battles of WWI Eastern Front. Nice items for restoration of original uniforms or upgrading reenactment gear. 3-hole buttons for tent and equipment, 4-hole buttons are for trousers and shirts. Left as found, proper cleaning may reveal more of the details. Rare type, aluminium. Scroll down to see better photos.
