Nice find. Hope a member will jump in to help ID the button. Thanks for sharing...

That flat button will be close the the date of the house, circa 1830s.

Maybe someone can share some input on the best way to clean these buttons up ?

If it had more gilt left I would say lemon juice but this one has no real cleaning needs. It's not going to improve much more than you have it.
