Is it a tombac? I know it’s got to be old it was real deep

No, neither appears to be tombac, but buttons with cast as opposed to soldered shanks are older and it's hard to tell from your pics (they don't enlarge enough for my eyes) to tell if either has a cast shank. Regardless, very nice finds, brother! :icon_thumright:

I appreciate it Erik i’m getting feedback that they’re thinking late 18th century or early 19th century.
