Description: | A cast copper alloy button of eighteenth century date. The flat circular button measures 31.7mm by 4mm and weighs 7g. The front has a bevelled edge and is decorated with what appears to be a flower formed from incised dots (there is damage in this area which has resulted from the separately cast wire shank being flattened against the plate). Surrounding this there is a ring of tiny incised leaves or branches. Within the incised decoration the front of the button has retained its gilding. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
