Looks like a flat button

This came out of the ground corroded. It was put through a limited electrolysis and then a copper cleaner.
These two steps helped reveal the surface detail, which is a seven-petal flower on the front(sunflower?) and a missing shank on the back.
This appears to be a flat button. Help in making a period id is appreciated.

I believe it is a cufflink based on the designed flower and being square---very nice find
