Went out to where Ive found many late 17 and early 1800s items...found a few new buttons. The bigger one
does have an edge but making out the eagle is pretty easy in person...the shank is what puzzles me. Its a
single cast design and heavier than you'd expect. The little one's appear to have a ladies flare to them with
soldered shank's...no foot...found them in Bartow County - north Georgia. Hope the pics view well...I'm not
very good at pics.

Awesome finds!

That Eagle button is probably late 1820s to 1830s, and l'd say the same date range for the other buttons as well.
