Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy button of probable late medieval to early post-medieval date. The biconvex circular button measures 11.7mm in diameter by 8.2mm thick and weighs 3.8g. The front of the button is undecorated. In the centre of the reverse is the stub of the integrally cast undrilled shank.
