Excellent!

Are they the same variety? Off the same jacket perhaps? There may be more close by.

I think they are, some wording, same size, just a few corn rows between the 2 buttons.

Those are a couple of nice early ones. I tried to find them in my Albert's book, but can't find an exact match. That bent right knee isn't matching up with any I can find in the book. Do they have a backmark? And what is their diameter in mm? You guys did well. Glad to see the farmer has held off on planting long enough for you to make those nice recoveries.

Thanks! There are a few close ones in the Tice book, I don't know the diameter, but when I give Ina her's back maybe she can measure it. They are cuff buttons. And neither buttons that I can see have a back mark. Yup, I'm surprised the farmer still hasn't planted, but happy!! : )

Those are off the same coat for sure. If the coat was tossed out, there will be more to find.

GREAT buttons there. :)
