Silver-gilt mount, flat pinked circular backplate, domed hollow boss with filigree ornament in roundels with central projections. Gilt on front. On back plate, remains of stud or fixing. Filed backplate.
The decoration can be compared with that on contemporary dress pin heads and hooks, probably made in the same workshops.
16th Century.
Consequently, in terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
