✅ SOLVED "Aragon" button?

[fyrffytr1]

I found this button Sunday and thought it was just a plain snap button. However, when I cleaned it a little, letters started to appear. At first I thought it said "dragon" but after looking at it closely it definitely says "Aragon". Is it possible that it came from the early 1800s Spanish independence war? It just doesn't look that old and the corroded back gives me doubt? Was there an "Aragon" work clothes button?

There was also an Atlanta company - A.M. Robinson that made "Aragon" branded overalls etc. circa 1910-1920.

Thanks for the reply. I think this pretty much solves my button identity. Thanks for all the help.

Older post, but I thought an update was in order. I was very surprised at lunch a couple days ago when a good friend of mine gave me a real Aragon button. With friends like this who needs a detector?
