Military button ID

Found this button today about 6 inches deep with my Legend, I don't know much about buttons so I am posting these pics to see if anybody knows how old it is. It looks fairly modern to me judging from the shank but like I said I am button ignorant. : )

Without something to judge the size by it looks like a cuff or pocket US Army "Great Seal" button. The round rim would date it from 1910-1927 but, it looks like there are remnants of a black finish on it that would date it 1910-1923.

It is smaller than a dime. Thanks for the ID
