2 Old Buttons

I've had these laying around for a few years, figured I would post them and maybe get some insight into the age etc. Any info would be appreciated.






Obviously Canadian?

Hopefully a button expert will chip in soon, but my amateur research indicates that the Lion rampant button could be displaying the Coat of Arms of the German City of Heidelberg.

Heraldry: February 2013

Could this button date to 1812?

The Crown button, I can confidently confirm to depict the Crown of St Edward.

Generally speaking, the British King's Crown.

I wonder if the rope border on the button defines it as a (British) Marines button?

Could it also be very old?

Looking forward to hearing from our T'Netter button wizards.

Edit: Scroll to the last two entries on the chart in this link to see where the Marines served, in 1812

I found this Victorian era Navy button which is similar to the one I found.
