Hey all, Can anyone help me with this button? It's a cuff size 2 piece with an eagle on it. I can't seem to make out the backmark and wondering if it's military or not. Thanx....

It is military, army general staff. If I'm correct about the backmark I believe the ?LLS that we see is the tail end of Scovills, which in the various plural form were all pre-civil war backmarks.
