I think you might have a couple of items pictured that might date back to the Civil war..

I think the excellent condition of the button might throw some viewers off.

Can you share any additional info? How you came about them, any kind of info might help make a determination.

at first glance i thought the two small buttons at the top right might have been infantry buttons, but i think they are a lot newer. my dad was in the army in the 50s and he had a lot of buttons exactly like the ones pictured.
 

Rich: The Crossed Flags piece is a Signal Corps brass.

The 3 Crossed Rifles are Infantry brass.

The Crossed Cannons are Artillery (may be old?)

Hope it helps

Need to flip those three eagles in the upper right over to look at backs and figure out what the backmarks are. Possibly CW more likely Indian Wars or later. Everything else appears to be 20th century.
