Old Uniform Eagle type button

[ClamBob]

I'm an idiot. I've been looking all over the net for help id'ing this (and a few other) button, and there was a forum here all along. This button looks like many early 1800's eagle buttons I have seen, but no shield. Sure would like to put a date on it. Sorry, no back, just the cap left when I found it.
Thanks,
BobJ

I would say WWI. If you go to www.civilwaroutpost.com click on misc. check out item # 17. Thats pretty close to what yours is. Nice find.
