It might be A. campestris or another closely related species, though I would expect the gills to be more pink at that stage of maturity if it were campestris. Identifying Agaricus to species is difficult at the best of times so I rarely bother trying. Smell and staining are important when dealing with Agaricus. If it smells phenolic/inky/unpleasant it's best not to eat it.

Hey, Thanks for the input TimmiT,

These smell just like the buttons I buy at the store.  The taste was also very similar.

Here is a picture of the smaller one I ate all cleaned up and cut in half to show the pink gills.

I've been told the same about Agaricus. If they smell good, chances are they're good. If they smell bad...well you know. I've also been told by a mycologist that some Agaricus spp. Require spore microscopy to tell them apart.
