With that high dap (dome) I would say 1880's-1920's. Maybe the WPD historian has photos of early officers wearing that type of button that can narrow it down. Great find, congrats. Sub

It does seem to shout late 19th C to me as well.

Congrats on the Police Button. If there is a Historical Society in Wilmington, you can send them a picture for a positive I.D. They may even have a full uniform on display.
Congrats on a nice find.
