The figure is clearly a senior officer (major to colonel).  The buttons appear to be aligned singly indicating the first foot guards regiment if he is a guards officer.  I think you could also paint him as an officer of an unlaced line regiment whose buttons are aligned singly.  Consider the Osprey books on Wellington's line infantry if you go this route.  You are right, the figure is a very rough casting, but probably a good figure to start with.  Good luck and welcome back to figure painting
