18th Century cellar site, buttons mostly

[colebear]

Hey guys, I don't normally post as much on this forum but after doing a bunch of dead fall clearing at my only producing cellar I found a few more keeper buttons that I thought I would share. I was hoping to get some help on time ranges and any additional info on context etc if at all possible. I'm trying to spend more time on the history and contextual value of items found at the sites I hunt to better tell the story of those who lived there once upon a time so anything that could add to that would be awesome, thanks for looking!

this is the 6th button of this design and size that I have found at this site, any info on this design would be very meaningful to learning about the site though I suspect it is a standard non-descript Colonial design

This is the second of this button I have found at the site, this one being in substantially better shape after cleaning. Silverwash dandy with imprinted pattern

Spread wing eagle on reverse, plain front

I actually went through other button's I had found recently and came up with another one with an eagle on the reverse, something I had never seen until today.

You're doing GREAT CB! Haven't found a button yet with an Eagle on the back.
