It's a cool find.

I find lots of dragon / gryphon buttons with a google search but non the same as yours.

Also found a 1861 token near by also but haven't taken pictures yet.
I'll try now while I got time.

The motif of a Griffin on the button looks familiar. I would suggest it might indicate a possible maritime connection
