It looks to be an old navy button, but looking at the back I would have to go to civilian fashion button, probably used as a fashion belt. Now if the piece hanging off the side is part of the rim for a two piece button than I would say you have a military button. Either way you go it is still a nice find.

At first I thought military because it is the front to a two piece button but it is out in the middle of no where

What is the little fly-away piece on the side of it?

So is this enameled? This is a beautiful find. How large is it?

It's the size of a dime so it's cuff size. No enamel. I was wondering if it was off of a metal , maybe connected to something either way I am stumped
