That is a sweet button! Congratulations! Is it British?

Dragoon Guards, probably 1790s or a touch later. (From what I just read possibly 3rd Dragoons)

Thanks Patch for the reply. I wasn't sure if it was revolutionary or 1812. Can't find this button in my books or online.

Yeah post Rev War. I've actually seen the same button quite a few times.
