I do not recall ever seeing an LR44/A76 button cell leak, so perhaps they were not as prone to do so as the larger cells are. Hopefully they will just be dead. Sounds like a good door prize for a lucky HHC 2020 attendee.

I think the alkaline LR44 button cells are prone to leak the same as AAA and AA alkaline cells, and I've seen a few worse for wear alkaline button cells before. I've yet to see a silver oxide SR44 or SR44W or equivalent 303/357 leak.
