Silver Musketball buttons: Aye of Nae?

[MacMillan of Rathdown]

I have seen buttons on a doublet that were round balls, certainly. I wouldn't think they would be at all odd; in fact, if they were made of silver, they would be quite appropriate and valuable heirlooms. Too many "experts" think that buttons on doublets "must" be the ubiquitous diamond shaped ones.
