Yep, and when they do have any gilt it is usually minimum or starts to come off when cleaning the dirt off with water.
I also assume back marks on the brass buttons says something along the lines of "GILT", talking about the gold plating that they once had. These...
Hard to say for value, I would say around $7 or so each, though someone else will probably pay more. I don't know much about pricing, I have found...

I prefer Coin World though Coinage is certainly close. I see Coinage in the Supermarket, which I buy monthly. I am hoping to get a subscription...

In the past week the tellers have saved 2 $5 notes for me 1963 Red Seal $5 and a 1950c $5. The 1950c has almost completed my standard small size...
