WW2 German Button

[SgtSki in MI]

I found this WW2 German button at an area in Michigan that housed POWs. I also found the US Cuff button nearby. The backmark of the German button is "E. SCHNEIDER" and "LUDENSCHEID". It is a 2-piece button so I believe it is an officer's button. I remember seeing somewhere that German Enlisted buttons were cast one-piece.

Any additional info would be great!

Very cool! I found a couple of those while stationed in Germany.
