Quick hunt - Two CW bullets & an Eagle button

Thought I'd sneak this last post in before Santa arrives.
After work today I made a mad dash for the 1830's property before I had to head home. I worked on the side yard where I've been coming up with some pretty good finds. This time I hit it at a 90 degree angle from the last time. Nothing spectacular, but I did get:

*Two CW bullets. One is very large, and the other has a small hole in the bottom (smaller than most I find).
Can anyone ID these two bullets?

*Eagle button with "Waterbury Button Co." on the back mark. Post 1900's I'm sure.

*Play token, buckle piece, etc.

No coins today, but I'm not giving up. ;)

Happy holiday & Santa Sud's (my dog) sends his love. ;D

Look at this Big Bad Wolf!! ;) From Injun to Wolf in 4.2 months!!! Great job my friend. The lead and brass is beautiful. It looks like you have honed into some nice relic producing ground. Nice bud! Is this house anywhere near the old place in the woods where you found that giant IRON EAGLE??

Welcome back Josh. I was starting to worry about you. Buckleboy , Civil, and Ty were getting ready to come looking for you out on the CW battlefields. ;)
No, the iron Eagle (now residing in the Civilman Museum) was found about 10 miles away on my lunchtime farm spot. The place I found the cannonball chunk.
These finds were found at the 1830's CW property I've been hunting. Same spot as the CW eagle sword belt plate, and other CW items.
Man, I wish you were closer to this area. You would love this spot!

Yeah me too. I would probably love it.

I know I was starting to have TNet withdrawals. I figured y'all were about to call out the posse to look for me :D ;D ;) ....The funny part is that I have permission to hunt a house from the mid 1800s that looks just like that one in your picture. We would definitely go hunting. I just got back from North Carolina a few days ago and I was at Wilmington and my friend lived down the road from Fort Fisher and several other small Confederate works and I WAS DYING! I wanted my DETECTOR soo bad! It sure would have been nice as he has about 10 acres right down the road from there. Well, all I need is a Eagle Belt Plate since I already have the U.S. oval....And you need a U.S. Oval....hopefully we will get them soon. I cannot wait for DIV! Hopefully will find it there! I am not TOO FAR away so you never know, one day we may be able to hunt ;) Nice finds Bud!!! ;)
