Great find If this is the correct button it's listed as unrecorded but could also be a modern copy of a blazer button

Back would be J Gaunt & Sons London....1899 onwards.

Wow. You live in Cheyenne I see.
So, do you know how to use a screen? Like for gold prospecting?
Put the detector down and make a box screen and take a shovel. Then did the hole out. sift the dirt.

This is how some of these cats detect on this site.

You nay have some good finds there
