Massive Dandy or Rosette or something else?

Hello TNetter pals:

I found this copper disk with some decoration around the edge and two attachment marks on the back. The attachment marks make me think it's unlikely to be a coat button but is this definitely horse tack? Could it be something worn by a person? I don't know. Any thoughts would be appreciated. It's from an area that dates back to the 1700's but I'm not really sure what century this is likely from as a large copper was found near it. There was also much more modern stuff like this quarter. Thanks.

Maybe the collar button from a cloak!

I would say horse tack.
A rosette

How far apart are the attachment points?

How far apart are the attachment points?

prob 3/4 of an inch.

Thanks I feel like that is most likely the answer

If that is the case, it probably isn't a rosette.
