Question for Button Experts

Is the button in this picture from a Prussian uniform?

The crown shown on your button's front appears to be a match for this World War One era German Army button. Also, note that this button's front is "rimless" ...and so is your button.

Thanks for this. The problem I was having is that internet searches turn up similar buttons, but they are sometimes captioned with very different descriptions.
