Need help with button, please.

Found this button on an old property. I've also found 1864 & 1869 IH's, 1869 Two Cent, no date LC and no date Sheild Nickel on same property for reference. Any info on the button or way to research it would be appreciated.

Looks like the same one. Late 17th century blazer button Blackheath Golf. Thanks.

Here is a Blackheath blogger very impressed with a button like yours found in the US.

What does the back of the button look like and does it have a backmark.

Nothing on the back, it's rusted out.

Trikikiwi, thanks for the links. Since this button seems to have been duplicated over the years, I guess there's no real way to age it. Alot of the junk I find on the property is probably from the 50's, so I believe the button was too. I was hoping it was more CW Era, but that's OK. Thanks all for the replies.
