Can anyone determine a age on these buttons.
They were found near Fort Crawford (In Wisconsin) along the banks of the Mississippi river.
I believe the two on the left are Regiment of Rifle buttons.
The one in the upper right is from 1st corp. artillery.
The one at the bottom right has a smooth front, but has some kind of marking on the back side.

Nice buttons! Artillery, c. 1810-13; Riflemen, c. 1814-21.
