see if this attachment is better.
Regarding dates this button should have been use up until c. 1833 by the Monaghan militia.
Thus, William Jones as the sole owner of the business from 1822 (thus the "W Jones" back mark) seems to fit well to me with the period in which the Monaghan militia had the number 1 precedence in its designation (1793-1833).
Thus you appear to have a button from the later part of its existence as the 1st or Monaghan Regiment of Militia.
