HJ Button Variations

[Orangeco707]

Does anyone know how many variations of buttons can be found on HJ Shirts and Jackets, I have recently come across a Jacket that has large brown leather buttons and was wondering if this was a normal. The following image has buttons like the ones I am attempting to describe. (This Jacket is a reproduction) Did orginal "war time" jackets have buttons like this? I will post the original later when I get home from work. . . . . . . .

IMO, there is nothing wrong with the leather cross-pattern buttons shown. They are quite common on HJ uniform items.
