Hi Barnesy, welcome to the forum!

I have added the pics to your post for ease of viewing for the forum membership.

The buttons are not Third Reich in origin. What they are for I do not know, sorry. The cannon motif is usually associated with the artillery branch of service in most armies.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi, Barnesy, these buttons are Austro-Hungarian artillery, WW I.
