Found this yesterday at our "New old site". Its the fifth military button found on this site. Any help dating it will be greatly appreciated. No back marks unfortunately.

Also dug this cuff button which is a little different from the flat buttons usually dug with the eagle and raised rim on the back.

Also dug the thimble and a gold gilted flat button that at first had me thinking id dug a gold coin!! It's thick and rang up like a coin...no stem so it felt like a coin too!
