NEED HELP IDENTIFYING OLD BUTTONS!

[johnm]

Found these buttons yesterday. One is sometype of starburst, and the other has an eagle on it. Both still have the studs on the back, and the eagle has a free floating stud. would appreciate it if ya'll could help identify what type, and how old they may be, and if any value to them. New to detecting, and my first good find, I guess you could say. Found in western South Carolina using a tesoro Tejon. Thanks.
