Well, here's a few of the finds so far this year, and a button that i hope one of the experts can ID for me . The diameter of the small eagle is 14.52 mm, In case you can't see the front looks like a heraldic eagle Facing to the right when you look at it, holding an anchor in its talons, the flukes are on its right also, there appear to be three cannonballs stacked under that.The back is iron and rusted out shank and all. the Large one Has i Diameter of 21.56 mm, The shield on its breast has five vertical bars and "I think 3 possible 5 stars above the bars in the shield, And tell nothing of backmarks, Any help would be Appreciated

The one is a General service,and the last one having the iron back is likely civilian

The first one is a North Carolina Sunburst Militia button. And quite a nice one at that.
 
Sweet NC button and I agree the last button is civilian. I hope I'm wrong because I have a couple myself. :)
 
That NC button is awsome!
