Navy button, CW? WWII?

[Mainedigger]

Found this button down about 8 inches at an old B&B dating back to the early 1800's. The back mark from what I can read says "R & ? Robinson" along the top and then along the bottom it says "_ _ _ _ A Rich" can';t read the first 4 letters. Looks to me to be Civil War era or shortly thereafter...but I know next to nothing about buttons, also could be WWII era for the Navy was stationed here on the island in WWII as well... Help?
Thanks
