✅ SOLVED Unknown Coin

[08Flyboy]

Hi,
yesterday I've found a coin. Does anybody know what it is?
Near of it I found weeks ago a Louis XV coin from 1769, ww1&2 (french, german, US) buttons + bullet casings, british Napoleonic wars ball button and a french 1762 military button if this can help.
The place of finding is germany, ca. 1km from french border.



Backside is unfortunately complete blank.

it appears from the photo that it is a button due to raised area in center. probably the loop broke off.

button with busted off iron loop in center (see the rust spot?)

Welcome to Treasure Net !!
Yes, I'd also guess button.
How about a pic of the reverse side?
Do I see the word GILT ?
Don.

Thank you, yes it really could be a button. The backside is complete blank. I never have found so much buttons before
GILT, I thought that the LT is a 17 at first

Has to be a button.

gilt is a thin gold wash type of plating commonly used on buttons --some were double , or even treble (triple) plated --double gilt .treble gilt , superior quality , rich orange gilt all are common "quality "puff" phrases" used in the late 1700 early 1800 era.
