They could be buttons that were worn in the remake of "The Four Feathers" some years ago (edit - 2003).
They were cast and were "aged" for the campaign uniform shots although I think the polished version were die struck (officer's buttons were of the fictitious regiment's design).
I don't have a shot of the back of the one I have.

Thanks Leigh, that is very similar even down to the flat edge at the top.
