A bit squeezed for time, so I’ll spare you my ramblings this time 
All of these are from Denmark
Danish army uniform button. This is a large button, the size of a nickel.
It displays the Danish Coat of Arms, three crowned lions surrounded by nine hearts. (You may have noticed that hearts also appear on Danish coins)
Another button. The mount on the back broke off from just putting the button under running water. I managed to catch it before it went down the drain. It was probably more of less loose to begin with, held in place by soil inside the button.
Carlsberg porcelain bottle cap. The swastika was used until 1933 (by when it had acquired another meaning than the traditional "good luck" it’s used for here..)
That someone would wear it, I’ll never understand…..
Looks like a snake staring at you, pressing its nose against a window
Thanks for looking and happy hunting!!

Buttons are one of my favorite relics to find. Those are excellent examples!
