Description: | A complete copper-alloy stud with a hollow domed head measuring 11mm in height and 18mm in rim diameter. Traces of a white metal coating can be seen on this head. Projecting from the centre of the underside of the head is a loop formed of a length of copper-alloy with the two ends pressed together, and presumably soldered into the centre of the underside of the head, and the bend forming a circular loop which projects below the lower edge of the head. It measures 14mm in total length and 7mm in diameter at its looped terminal end. This decorative stud is perhaps most likely to be medieval or early post medieval in date, although no published parallel could be found.
