Found it in the park

I have been MDing the last few days during my lunch period and after work at the City Park in the city where I work. They are constructing some new walking paths and are digging the paths, framing them, then putting in the concrete. I have been lucky enough to hunt the paths before they get them framed while the construction guys take their lunch and after they get off work. I haven't found any silver coins so far but have found a 1901 IH penny, 1917,1918,1939 wheat pennys, an old silver ID bracelet, and a few modern coins. Today after work I found this little unusual metal disc that appears to be stamped thin copper. I was wondering if anyone could ID the symbol on the disc. I have found old and new stuff in the same area so don't have a clue what it is. It is a little smaller than a dime and thin.

Probably a 2 piece button. The iron back long since rusted away. I've found a couple in various stages.
 
i might totaly be wrong but i know this looks like a spartan soldier or either constantine era were they made there coins from bronze but the seven stars depicts the revelations out of the bible when the battles went down between greece,romans,jews and so on they made there coins like that on purpose there are lots of coins that are smaller than a dime and were stamped together back an front so these im sure are somewhere in AD but how far back and it might be a replica of some sort but i hope this helps just look up old coins from the constantine era the back looks like it fell off or ?.also revelation coins might help an it might be part of a costume or armour .
