Revolutionary war era items????

[Kev78mex]

Found these buttons while swinging in a wooded area where Revo War soldiers were around. I would love to know if these are from the era of the Revo War. Thanks for any help on identifying these buttons. The largest button has slight rings that go around about halfway to the middle can barely see em.

How cool is that? I'm not an expert but the backs of the buttons look like they could be from that period...Finding those must have been a nice rush.

Yes, those are late 18th century button. Not military per se, but could easily be from the Rev War period.

I wonder if anyone has tried reattaching these kinds of buttons after repairing them to clothing?
