Anyone seen this before? Token/button

Belfast

Found in a forest, I assume it to be a token or more likely from an item of clothing, possibly related to WW1 army clothing as this site was a training camp for the British army around 1914.

Second pic is through a microscope, the leaf like imprints are in a full circle formation and there is a nipple on the rear in the middle, this is what makes me think it could be from clothing.

Found an 1863 one pence coin not too far from where this was found.
 
EDITTED---------I just noticed my post is pretty non-relevent but I'll leave the links for your viewing pleasure. Also, I realize now that your floral design is on the front of yours so ignore my next suggestion.----------

It looks similar to a button I found early this year, especially if your leafing is on the back of the button and is smooth on the front. Mine is a Flat Gilded European made between 1800 and 1830 by "Rich Gold Colour". That is my oldest button to date!!

Some one that has one on this forum with the floral closer to the center like yours......

Check the side with the floral, opposite rotation of the floral design, and look for evidence of the same lettering.

Someone is selling on on ebay right now just like mine.....
