From relicman's site, which agrees with other backmark dating information, Scovills * Waterbury is pre 1850. I notice that there appears to be some letters between Scovills and Waterbury, and that could narrow down the date range. Scovills * Waterbury alone is pre-1840 Scovills & Co. * Waterbury is 1840-1850

This dating range concurs also with the front of the button.....
Earlier US Navy buttons worn prior to the Civil War, made from the 1830
