Is this civil war.

I found this today in a field in Canada, do you think it could be civil war. It looks like it has 9 stars?

How big is it and what does the back look like? Right off hand, I would say it is either a patriotic car radiator emblem or a license plate topper.

It could be an early Pinkerton Detective Service or other Security company badge, maybe 1940's to 1960's?

Union Pacific Railroad emblem?

It came from a 1850s cabin site that was used up to maybe 1900, it is possible a car emblem. It is the size of a silver dollar.
