Early 1800s button found in tot lot at site of 1800s hotel then german fun park

The location is now a church with a soccer field. The tot lot was small and had a fence around it so I only had like 5 square feet that i could detect. This was about 3in down found with garret at pro. I don’t know much of anything about this and am assuming its early 1800s so if you know anything let me know.

Looks to be a mid 1800's "flower" button. The style of shank on the back dates the button. Nice find!
