My mother in law found this in her backyard. Didn't know if anyone can help us figure out more about this. Thank you

Huh, I'd go the other way with it (WWII or earlier), since I think it's either a cavalry bridle rosette or perhaps blinder rosette. The exact diameter will help determine its original use.

That is a bridal rosette, but I am not sure as to the time period. It looks to be Spanish American era but I am not an expert on them.

Thank you for the comments I will have have them measure it for me and I'll post the size it is.
