A picture of the back will always be very helpful

Click to expand...

The Spirit of St. Louis is a High Wing aircraft and the one on the button is a Low Wing. So either Not the Spirit of St. Louis or the artist doing the button just made up what the plane looked like.
Or this is really a different plane and it got misnamed Spirit of St. Louis.
