It looks like an old button but my guess is civilian. It may have been a 2 piece that lost it back or a concave 1 piece but either way its civilian IMO. But I may be wrong. :D It has that rounded wing eagle.

The buttons are 20th century blazer or sport coat buttons. Cheaply made copies of earlier navy design buttons. They were made with the holes through the face, and never had backs or shanks for attachment.
