I found this today but not sure what it is. Looks like a button but it’s really thin.

I agree.

Not techiquely a French bird cage shank.
Just a commonly produced 4 holed button used on old underwear & shirts, circa early 1900s.

It may have a makers mark on it if you clean it up

Thanks for the replies. No marks that I can see.
