They are Louisiana staff officers buttons. As far as I know all LA staff buttons are post civil war. If you could post a pic of the backs that might help date them better. While the civil war LA buttons go into the hundreds of dollars, Indian war period are a lot less maybe 10 to 20 for a nice coat button.
