Anyone ID this basket waeve pattern button?

If anyone can help with any info on this button would be great. Dug in my home area in St Augustine Fl.

It's a civilian pattern commonly used in the 18th century. Some were still being made into the 19th century. The 18th century versions were made of pewter or brass, generally, and had no backmarks.

If you could get us a better shot of the back, it looks more likely to be a cuff link than a button to me?
