RN Button?

Hi All
Is this an early RN button? It is 20mm diameter.
Cheers,

Hi Alex,
Looks like a potential fashion item with a backing like that.

confirming: It is a fashion button from the first half of the 20th century.

Thanks guys. I have no idea what the early plain anchor buttons of the RN look like, so had to ask the question.

Note that the site is a compilation of books, magazines and the internet. It does have a number of incorrect statements.

Perhaps it is a continental navy or maritime service?
