Hi,

Thanks for looking.

Is this even a button? It's brass colored and measures 7/16ths of an inch across the middle.
It was found on the beach in NY.

Yea they look like a match. I found a complete package of these tacks looked like 50's-60's era and the shafts are attracted to a magnet. The older 19th century tacks I am told do not have a ferrous shaft.
