My first plate! Civil war pocket knife? And nice buttons, in the woods again

Plate is very delicate and falling apart so I coated it with ceramic paint to keep it from crumbling anymore, knife was found near it, and some nice pewter buttons

Nice finds. The buttons are late colonial / early 19th century for the most part. The knife is CW period I believe.
