Flat Button Find today - ID Needed

[acm3]

Braved the wind and cold today and found this flat button in an area I have been finding 1700-1800 items. This button the word "PLATED" on the back and 3 small symbols. I know nothing about buttons. Any help in IDing and/or dating this would be great.
Thanks for looking.

I can't help on the age but I just dug one that said plated and had three characters on the opposite side but I could not make out I will be interested to find out a date a range too

My educated guess is 1820 - 1830

My guess would be late 1700's to around 1820 or so. Just a guess, based on the shank style and the "plated" stamping on the backmark. I don't think they had backmarks on buttons much earlier than the late 1700's.

My guess is 1810-1820 manufacture date.

Backmark were commonly used between 1820-1840's. It may be hard to nail down an exact date but it's in the ballpark anyways. Nice old site!
