Found in a field where I found a few 1700 coins in South Jersey. i have no clue if it’s Royal Navy Button - What do you guys think? Is this revolutionary war period? Back is blank.

Thanks Duggap! Those links are extremely helpful. I did look at at that Button in Alberts book and it sure looks similar (actually very close) but I think the rope on the button I found near the bottom of the anchor is closer to the bill/fluke. Using the link here’s a screen shot of the Royal Navy Rev buttons that look similar. I’d like to believe it’s a British Button from the Revolutuonary war but I’m one of those that’s like ‘no way - can’t be’. I need proof! Haha. What do you guys think?
