"Best" meaning "Best Quality" - The eagle means American made.. After the War of 1812 the Americans took pride in in making buttons and making buttons with an American Eagle on the back-mark. The button dates to around the 1820s time frame.. 1820s-1830s

When you say "nothing on front" is it just flat? picture of the front would be nice.
