🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Civil war button?

[Older The Better]

I think I’ve got a civil war button, it’s in rough rough shape, I tried to use an Andres pencil on the outside but I’m not getting much, but if you look on the inside it’s definitely an eagle with a shield… I can’t make out the head though so don’t know if it’s civil or Indian wars… as for the back mark same story clearly something based on the inside but outside is no help. I may be seeing it because I have it on the brain but does anyone else see scoville? … can any experienced civil war guys out there confirm or deny my hunch? Also very small would easily fit on a dime with room to spare. Cuff button maybe?
