Looks like an oldie for sure . I'm guessing pre-1900 Typed in rich quality and found this. I'd say CW at least

Look here

I could not find an exact match.
But in the Revolutionary War & War of 1812 Era section
I found this one listed as "Scarce Militia pattern with solid border. 'Treble Gilt (OE)/London'".
Great find.

Still have not found one just like it yet looks like it may be from the 1800's and before the civil war.
Possibly Revolutionary War that would be cool. If any one has any thing else on this one let me know.
Thanks

Fantastic Button!

That is much older than civil war era. It is an early militia button, pre 1830, more likely war of 1812 era.
