    I HAVE TONS OF BUTTONS THAT HAVE ACCUMULATED OVER THE YEARS AND I JUST RECENTLY DECIDED TO LOOK THROUGH THEM. I MUST SAY THERE ARE SOME PRETTY INTERESTING DESIGNS ON MANY OF THEM. HERE ARE A FEW THAT I THINK ARE SOME TYPE OF BUTTON BUT THE BACK SEEMS TO SLIDE OVER ANOTHER FIXTURE SO I'M NOT SURE WHAT THESE WOULD BE CALLED. THEY ARE PRETTY NEAT THOUGH!

      I have some relatively modern ones that were made using old coins.
