Guy - I checked some of my grandfathers WW1 buttons and yours is older than that I am pretty sure. I am guessing yours is either late civil war or later. I really thought it might have been confederate by your description and where you found it but after seeing it I don't think it is. I tried googling and checking my books but I have not had any luck yet. If you can get the back cleaned up that will really help. Military buttons were only made by a few manufactures and should be marked on the back. That also can date it. I will keep looking until we get that thing identified.
