Description: | A cast copper-alloy brooch. The brooch is flat and circular and appears to have been turned. An engraved ring runs around the outside edge of the brooch and a punched dot is located in the centre. The obverse is otherwise undecorated. The reverse has the remains of a catchplate and a pin lug positioned on the outermost extreme of the brooch. The fittings have been arranged transversely. There are some filing marks on the reverse of the brooch. The metal has a dark brownish-green pitted patina. It resembles an 18th century button, but could date from the late 16th - 18th century.
