Buttons

Buttons are a members-only item that players can only obtain by picking the pockets of a male or female H.A.M. member.

Buttons are not stackable items - each pile occupies one slot in the inventory. They are also not tradable, either to other players or any kind of store.

The default action for buttons is to polish them - this is usually done by left-clicking (see Game controls for more information), and results in the message: "You rub the buttons on your clothes and they become more shiny." This changes them into polished buttons, which are used in Animal Magnetism. This is the only use for buttons.

The archaeological expert says: "I think these are from the nobility, perhaps a royal servant?"

The examine text refers to a pantomime character based on the real-life Richard Whittington. Interestingly, the shortened form of Richard ("Dick") is censored out by the chat filter in the game. Apparently, Jagex can say words in RuneScape that their players cannot. This is also demonstrated by the address label, since players cannot say "address" in the game.
