It is a high quality button with a generic design (stock design). I think it dates from around mid 1850s. I know chiseling (the 3 shiny dots on the band) was common for civil servant's buttons on full dress. I do not know if it was done on military buttons.

I have attached a low quality, other ranks button, said to be a Militia stock button.
