    Brass Eagle Badge Pieces....any ideas?

    These were actually found on an Indian Wars Infantry site dating 1880's. I know the buttons I find here go back to the Civil War period and was wondering if perhaps these pieces could also? I have no idea what these pieces originally looked like. One has a "Rifle" (from what I think would be a crossed rifle) If anybody has a guess... I would appreciate it! I am going back to look for the other pieces next weekend. Thanks!

    How about an 1881 Pattern, Indian Wars period Infantry helmet plate? Here are a couple of examples:
