I think your guess is right based on others posted on here. Looks OK

Yes it's a Riflemans button and in great condition, probably manufactured 1850's and looks like the ruffled feather variant. the Rifleman buttons are not easy to find and you already finding two on that site is really nice.
it would be nice to see that anchor button you found there too, if you don't mind posting it.
Congrats and hope you find more, Bill
