Default Button Identification

I need the help of the forum to identify these buttons please.

With Victorian crown, strung bugle, number 20, blackened brass, Firmin & Sons London maker. Note the smaller buttons are without the number 20.

Who wore them and when please?

Thank you for looking, Keith

Keith,

Listed as 20th [Artists'] Middlesex Rifle Volunteers. post 1880 in Howard Ripley's book on Rifle Volunteer buttons. The smaller ones could be the same or a generic button.

David.
