Found my 1st war relic, think its a "Great Seal" button - SCOVILL MF'GCO WATERBURY

I was able to hunt a 1890s farmhouse property in south GA last week and had some nice finds, including my first war relic. I wanted to share my best find with you guys. I think its a "Great Seal" button (1902 - Present), but not 100% sure. The old field I found it in was really sandy and most of the finds were in nice shape. At first sight I couldn't believe I found it, but I knew it was something good8-)
I appreciate any info on the button and thanks for looking.

It is a great seal button and you're correct on the date range with that back mark I really can't be more specific... Had it been Steele and Johnson manufacturing company I could have cut the date down
