Quick Dig! CS Local Staff Officers Overcoat Button Star Boarder on Lined Field!

Stopped off for a short hunt this afternoon and pulled (amongst a few old iron hardware and large buckle) a nice plain back button. Looks similar to a CS droop wing eagle but not exactly and the head is right facing.
Any ideas here? Dug in central VA.

***EDIT Appears to be a local CS Staff Officers overcoat button!

Maybe a CS local staff officers?
 

Relicman.com has a few. Appears to be a Confederate Officers button with star boarder on lined field. Wow. I'm a happy camper!
 

I bet you are happy camper. That is quite a rare find and a very desirable button. Congratulations!
 

Nice find! Looks like someone might have got creative with that button by flattening it and then turning the rim up :dontknow:
 

Thanks yall. First confederate article aside from bullets for me. Needless to say I'm going to fire up the deus and take it low and slow. See where the buckle might be ;) hah
