Managed to get out a little this week while it was nice. Now this white stuff is falling that we don't see much here in Va. Well I hit a spot that so far has been one of the most productive for me. I stared off with a little bullets drop that include a nice 57 base Enfield and a Gardiner. After about a hour I got this little cuff button that I thought was going to just be another flattie but it wasn't the case. A few more flat buttons and a ton of wheats. This place produces more wheat pennies than I have ever seen I think Im up to at least 50 now. Well I dont know much about this button I have some ideas but nothing real solid If anyone has any info I would love to hear it.
Thanks for looking

Nice patriotic button!
 
I think I found your button in Albert's. But, it is marked UU132 (page 458-459). That means it was unclassified and unidentified when this book was published. There are two variations with one having the "E. Pluribus Unum" and the other missing the E. It looks like the backmark reads "colour" which would most likely make it of British manufacture.
I wish I could be of more help.
