Button ID help please

[Mr. Digger]

Dug this nice button today near an old foundation and would appreciate any help on the ID. I'm thinking it may be a WWI or WWII Navy button but any confirmation or additional info greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No help with ID but congrats

With some help from some folks on another forum I've ID'd the button as a pre-1941 Coast Guard Uniform button. It's on page 277 of the Albert's book. Here is another example:
