I am reading up on the complicated history of this region.
You have listed the first two buttons are SAF. Is that South Arabian Federation? The brass button could date that far back, but the construction of the 2nd design are 1990s Firmin construction.

Would you please elaborate?

I have been working on my other Arabian buttons. Most eagles or falcons do have a text, but it is hard to find them on stamps, coins and badges. I even recognised a few stamps from my early collecting years in the 1960s.
Could the attached 16mm chrome button be Federation of South Arabia?
