Got these buttons today, they were all within a foot of eachother. Anyone got any info on them or an age? One button has a train on it, one says Granite, and the other says Thompson MFG. CO. I did a check and didnt come up with anything for that.

The last thing really has me stumped? Its smaller then a Dime and made of lead or pewter I think. Maybe whats left of a bale seal? Just a thought. Thank you for any info.

Need pics of button backs.

Seal is a seal. Everything from bales of goods to cash bags to electric meters.

There is no shank on the back of them. There hollow. May not even be buttons. I just figured thats what they were.
