Random Finds From Saturday - 2 Button ID's needed as well

Went on a road trip with a buddy to meet up with some friends and came out with the following finds from a bulldozed lot and a park.

Was curious about the two buttons. The Eagle button looks just a bit different than most that I see, especially the shield. Is it CW or something else? Backmark is: Waterbury Manufacturing Co. and it measures just under 7/8" across. The other button has no backmark.

Total Finds:
Eagle button
Other neat Button
Cufflink
1895 & 1902 V Nickels
1937 Buffalo Nickel
1936 Mercury Dime
1907 Indian Head Cent
8 Wheat Cents
Possible tool or id tag? Holed with 4 on one side and I on the other.

Nice finds! Is the Buffalo a "D" mint mark? If so, check to see if the buffalo is missing
a leg. The 37-D "3 Legged Buffalo" is a good one. :thumbsup:

Nice finds.. the Eagle button is late.. Indian Wars or later.. the other one?? No idea..civ coat button I'd guess.. when it comes to Eagle Buttons.. I have never seen a CW period that has that style shield or one even close they are all Indian Wars or later... still a good find!

Monkeyboy is right on the age of the eagle. Indian Wars Era, but pre 1900 or so.

Great finds!
