British Navy button

[Rubka888]

Hey guys,
I found this in England in Sept. But I am putting it under today's finds because I just got my finds back and cleaned this button to reveal an anchor. Pics came out sideways. Don't know how to fix that.. Any ideas on age or more info on it?

The anchor seems a little odd to be British Navy, so it might be Spanish or French, not sure. The construction would would point towards 1810 (ish), so it might be connected to the Napoleonic wars??
