Old Military Button?

Found this button very near where my buddy found a three ringer bullit. Just wondering the age and origin. Thanks.

Might be British. We need to see the back. Is the back rusted? There are so many different makers of this fouled anchor.

the back is a big blob of rust unfortunately.

Although its old, the steel back makes it most likely civilian blazer with a Navy motiff. Maybe a career uniform. They are still made today. Here is one similar example. http://www.waterburybutton.com/cart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=46&idproduct=28466
