✅ SOLVED Possible Navy button???

[Diggin Dude]

Need a little help with this one, anchor button I think is a possible Navy button but not sure of the era or if it's actually from a uniform because this two-piece button has a steel/iron back. Any thoughts?

Iron/steel backs are typically more modern, civilian copies of military buttons.

Actual Navy buttons would have a brass back.

I found this one listed under the Career Uniform section at the Waterbury site. But, they don't give any information on its use. Maybe you could contact them for more.

If you go to this page you will see few that match your button.
