Spent an hour at a cellar hole area yesterday and found these three buttons. I still pretty new at this and was wondering if anyone could put an age on these. The one on the right says "best colour" and they are all slick on the front.I know this house dates back to at least 1800, but I doubt these are that old.

I'd say it's safe to say early 19th century.

yes the one on the left is indeed a tombac and late 1700's to very early 1800's for sure .
 
Nice buttons,

Yes the pewter one far left is late 1700's. The others are early 1800's.
