Anybody familiar with this button backmark?

Any thoughts as to its age and origin?

I think it is a generic English one. The same backmark is on Confederate buttons, the only difference I can see, being it is between two lines. I think your button may date to a later period but I can't find a similar example.

Having a problem matching the font BUT the biggest difference is the different types of metal (as pictured). I have to agree with fyrffytr1 - it would appear to be a newer button.

I didn't notice the back picture when I posted the link. I get the feeling Creskol's' button is a later date than the one I linked.
