looks like a typical flat button 1800 -1830 eraish normally --see if there is any wording or marking on the rear -- called "backmarks" or if there is anything etched on the front --if so a more exact date might be obtainible as well as who made it -- often these were british made with various "quality mark
" markings like -- treble gilt -- superior quality -- rich orange colour

On my 3rd Tesoro Vaquero. Sold the first two because I fell for all the "Hype" on the XP Deus, and Equinox. Will not sell/trade this one.

Home is the only site i could find a little information on the ones i've found. My neighbors thought i found gold when i found my 1st one. Nice find. Not sure if that site came up or not, but you can google greybird relics
