Black Glass Anchor Button

[ANTIQUARIAN]

I found this on a farm site on Sunday.

Can anyone tell me when this dates to and if it's actually a British Navy button or just a common everyday button?

Thanks,
Dave

Reminds me of a Navy Pea Coat button. Google up vintage navy pea coat buttons and you'll see what i mean.
If it is, it is certainly an old variety.

Thanks very much for the lead Dave!
Of course I 'Googled' the description 'Black Glass Anchor Button' & 'Antique Glass Navy Button' before I posted this piece, but found nothing similar online.
I was just hoping that there would be someone here that knows exactly what this button is... either military or civilian?

Best of luck to you over seas Dave!

Thanks Dave,
congratulations too. I don't post often, but visit the sight daily. How you have been tearing it up Up North has not gone unnoticed over here. Hope your success continues.

Thank you very much for the compliment Dave, I sincerely appreciate it!
Just trying to save what I can before the expansion of our cities destroys the history in the ground!

Here's a link to my original post from last Sunday if you're interested in seeing what else I found on the site.
