I wanted Maine but got Massachusettes

[mainer]

Got out for a very quick hunt this morning, and was able to dig this Massachusettes civil war button. Atleast thats what I think it is. Says Massachusettes on it. And has there state seal. Judging from it being a two piece and the Scoville back mark I am assuming civil war. But any info from the button exsperts is much appreciated. Found it on ebay says made between 1860-1870.
