Description: | Incomplete copper alloy solid discoidal two-piece button, missing its wire shank.
The button is convex to the top with a flat underside. It is 14.6mm in diameter and stands 7.2mm high. It weighs 6.42g.
On the underside are the remains of an embedded copper alloy shank with some iron staining.
The metal has a high tin content which gives a shiny appearance to the button.
