Old Button found need help identifying!

[TL Missouri]

I found this button in a farm field where a church once stood. Need help identifying. It is about penny size and made of brass. It is a one piece button but the clasp is broken off the back. It is made of brass. Has the word warranted above the eagle and superior below. Any help would be appreciated. Found with a whites eagle II SL. thanks TL

I'm not sure it's a button. It looks like a marking disc. civil war? There are some on page 142 of civil war atifacts by howard crouch.

It's a medallion bolt-head from the handle of a hand saw.
