You should also post a photo of it wet/damp.. It helps bring out some detail when it's in that condition.
 

Here is the button when it is a little damp. To me it looks like an eagle perched on a horn and I've scoured the internet trying to match it up but with no luck.

Interesting button! I think it could be a match or close to this one which I researched a couple months ago-

Possibly a Prussia Postal Uniform button..? Or could be military.

Preußischer Postknopf? - Schatzsucher.de

Pretty neat that these are turning up in the US.

Thanks a bunch Bramblefind. I'm thinking this is the button I have. Still not sure if it is a postal or military button though. I could not determine this from the threads on the German site.

Also just so you know, I recently took a trip to Germany and this is where I found the button.
