Old Tavern - (Need Help) ID'ing buttons....**UPDATED PIC SIZE**

Hello Everyone,

**Note** Sorry for the large pic's, didn't crop, first time posting :o

I hunted an old tavern in Dayton today and found a nice Eagle button Cavalry I believe, made by "Canfield Bro & Co - Baltimore" but the shank and back fell off when I got it home and brushed it off... :(

I found an 1884 Indian head penny in fairly good shape, except for the rookie mistake I made and scratched the nose a little...OUCH!!

-- Two Buttons ---
One button has a star in the middle with some wings or something????
2nd Button has a crest on it with an open back that is rusted out.

If anyone can help identify these and the circa of the Eagle button , which I believe is Civil War, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!!
