Looks way too recent in my eyes to be 18th century, but I ain't no button expert.

Hi; Nope. It is Modern. It is a 2 Piece Button which came into being about 1820. Before that was the 1 Piece Button. Yours is most likely WW1 - WW2. Iron Patch can help you even more ok. PEACE:RONB

The self shank design would lead me to think it is more likely a fashion button than military... It's not U.S. anyway, but there's some sharp British folks here who could say for sure if it's from over there.

Agreed, 20th C fashion button.
