I'm all googled out. Unable to find a source for copper rivets typically
used to reinforce jeans at stress points. Usually set from back side
with what looks like a nail. Thanks to anyone who has found source.

Here's a source that I've found:

I've been planning to order some but haven't yet, so I can't comment on
how good the company is to order from. Tandy Leather is a rather
well-known company, though, so it's probably a good source.

We've used their agents in England and they've been very good, with a
personal service.
