I found a pic of your second button but I don't know the age of yours.All I have found out is that is a navy button.

Waterbury Button Company
Fashion Button - Non military (still made today)
Pattern # 26822 Wings & Propeller

The anchor button with "canal de vieux" translates from French to "channel of old men" (ish). This is also a fashion button IMO.

Third one is a modern blazer button featuring the Italian fasces.

Last one is reminiscent of an Italian military button, but, I've not found one that matches it and I think it might also be a fashion button. Still looking.
