Early Eagle Navy?

[Joe G from Md]

I found this button in early war camp at Williamsport Md.. Think its an anchor on shield.

Is it a 1 or 2 piece button? The early US navy buttons with that design were one piece. In the 1830's (or a little later) they switched designs and went to the then popular 2 piece button.

It's a two piece button, I thought it was 1840's.

Why ask a question then let someone hanging, this is fourth time I have been asked a question with no response, should I just ignore questions?

I don't need to relax , he asked if it was 1 piece or 2, when was that question answered?

Any Back-mark?
