Hey Goofy, If your button is backmarked Hebbert & Co. it dates from between 1852 and 1895. The firm was listed variously as Army clothier, accoutrement & cap-makers to thier Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Gloucester from 1834. The firm lasted until 1935. During the Civil war they made some button for the Confederate Navy. Hope this helps you some....Lance
