Default Crowned CPR Button...

Another button I can't identify? Whether it's livery, military or something else I don't know! Has the design of what I'm assuming is crowned CPR letters with R. Bushby back stamp so c1806-24 in date I believe. I bought this from another dealer so not sure where it was found. I'll be selling this button on at some point.

Thanks,

Phil

Looks as if they've been operational since 1881 so I don't think it belongs to them. Thanks for your help though
