Found this on Saturday, I think it might be an old cloak button from the 1600s-1700s? But that is only a guess. Dan, George...Looking to ya'lls expertise in this area!?

This thing is HUGE! Little smaller than a silver dollar, but bigger than a half, and is heavy. There is no loop, the post does curve a bit, and there is no makers marks, and looks handmade.
