I must speak up with a correction... it is NOT a "civil war era" button. The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) was the primary organization for yankee veterans of that war. The GAR did not exist until 1866, a year after the end of the war.

I'm looking at the button and the picture is not reversed! The button itself is reversed! Here's another picture

Maybe its one that is worn on a bathrobe while shaving while looking in a mirror.

You could be right...
Just went into the button press backwards.
If so it is defiantly a rear one.
