Plate or badge from Chattanooga, TN

I found this item 17 years ago near Missionary ridge in East Ridge, TN while hunting Civil War relics. It is made of stamped copper or brass. It depicts an armored angel slaying a dragon. No inscriptions. Would like to Know what it may be and age.

Saint Michael. no real info, I think the pic I posted (yellow thing)is a button mold.

I would say its part of a two piece steel back button.
It looks like these people are taking older buttons and making molds from them.

Did you notice that on the token on the left, the Saint is left handed; while on the token pic on the right, he's right handed?

I is not a token. It is larger then a silver dollar and it is stamped brass. What you are looking at in the first picture is the back.

What I'm looking at is the person is holding his sword in his right hand in one image and in his left in the other; ergo, my comment.
Whether it's a plate, badge, token or whatever is not my immediate concern.

Vantaj,
I think that type of button is generally called a 'Victorian picture button'.
Weather its old enough to be actually made during Victorian era I do not know.
