Date this button?

I know it's probably just a civilian button. I'm thinking early 1900s?.. Just to see if anyone can date it for me, I hope you can see the back mark of the button.

Some will have the button book and be able to date it for you. I’d say 1860’s-1940’s. Google the markers mark and see what pops up. Nice find, I love buttons

I would say mid 19th century. It's a pretty button.

I love oak leaves and acorns. Two of the acorns have dropped from the caps so that tells you it's September. Gary

Very nice civilian button find Moe, with lots of the gilt remaining.
As the others have already suggested, mid-19thc in date.
