Not sure if this is a military button or just a piece of junk. I found it in the same area as some eagle buttons. thanks for any help! There is no back on the button.

This is about as close as I can find in Albert's button book, but I still don't think we have a match.

It looks to me like this one recently posted -- a civilian style:

Sorry, its definitely NOT military. Its a very common civilian button made in a Navy motiff. This fashion design has been manufactured for about 100 years.

I would say that is solved thanks very much. Guess its back to the old grind lol.

looks like early 1800's to me

How many early 1800's buttons have you seen with a tin backing?
The I.D. is correct. Late 1800's at best. Most likely 20th century.
Cheers,
