I think these are standard black 'hunting horn' buttons as you suggested.
There is not enough detail to see if the button has additional letters or symbols.

picclick has this link:

The first link is actually my photograph which I allowed Steve to use for his website. Sadly, the buttons are too small to see in any detail.

The second link is interesting as they were part of the Indian Army as the 20th Burma Rifles from 1922 until 1937, they had previously been the 70th Burma Rifles. They must have used a button without the number 20 between 1937 and 1947.
