Found 2 matching 2 piece flat buttons, looking for help with date and context please.

I seem to have found an area near my old house that contains relics from around the civil war period and maybe a little before or after.
If anyone can help ID these two pieces that would be amazing as I can't seem to find any information on the great wide web!

Each button is 23mm in width, they also have two small holes on the back which I assume is from the manufacturing process. I am also pretty sure they are gold guilt. One has been part way cleaned the other is how it was found.

They look to be very late 1700's/early 1800's civilian flat buttons, cool finds!

Thank you so much for the information, very helpful in trying to pin down a time period this area was being used in!

Those are one piece buttons

I don't think they are 1 piece, I have found many 1 piece lat buttons and these are totally different. The 2 holes in back must have been used in the manufacture process and if you look close on the cleaned one you'll notice where the two sides come together. If I am wrong then why a hollow middle and the two holes?
