You need to show their reverse.

I thought all but no. 3 may be fashion buttons - the image of the reverses appears to confirm.

Thanks Leigh, what are fashion buttons?

Buttons produced for wear on civilian clothes in recent decades, not for regimental blazers and the like but for fashion lines.
There are all manner of buttons and badges produced in metal, bullion, other embroidery for that purpose.
(As an aside, years ago my wife had a blazer that had beautiful, heavy, gilt King's Crown RAPC buttons, it was only when you looked at the back of them you realised that they were cast, hollow backed "fakes").

Button no. 3, the naval one - there are so many similar buttons I'm lost with these - calling a RN etc expert please?

All are fashion buttons, including no. 3
