SILVER, Buttons, CW bullet, Buffs, Bling, & Tiny Teapot

I hit my new spot after work for a few hours today again. I must say,this has been one of my best houses for finding old coins so far. I still need to break into the 1800's though. My 1901 "V" nickel yesterday almost made it. :'( I finished up most of one of the side yards, and the finds were plentiful. ;D I can pretty much tell you this is a virgin spot because of the old coins & buttons I'm finding in the yard. If someone hit this before, they must have had their detector turned off. :o ;)
Today's finds were:
*1944 Merc

*TWO 1951 Rosies

*1926 BUFF & one no date Buff

*Wheats- 1918 , 20 , 56 , 57D

*A 3-ringer. My first CW bullet at this new spot.

*Three BUTTONS- I could use some help IDing all of them if possible. Any idea? Circa?

#1) A beautiful gold gilt 28mm with "Philadelphia Maneto" on the front, and a "Superior Quality"
Circa- post 1900's?

#2) A28mm flat button with a "BEST" back mark. (circa 1820-1840)

#3) A tiny 14mm flat button with what appears to be a small eagle at the top of the back mark. (circa 1820-1840)

*Small Teapot with "FGH Design - Made in England" on the bottom.
Could use help IDing this little guy too.

*A costume jewelry earing with green gem piece. No markings.

Thanks for looking Folks.

One piece buttons typically pre-1850s. The two piece civil war era.

Your Welcome sir.  I'd still like to know how old it is. The gilt on the front is outstanding. The back mark is identical to a Police "P" button I found recently back of the "P" button below

You're raking in the relics there, Doug. WTG! Sweet coins and buttons but the tiny teapot really would make my day. Any guesses what it was used for? An early Monopoly playing piece? ;)

Supposed to be -3 degrees here tonight......North Carolina sounds kinda good. :)
