Description: | A lead alloy Medieval button. The button is flat and circular in shape and rectangular in section. The reverse has a loop in the centre. The front is decorated, however the poor condition makes it hard to depict. There seems to be a border made up of lines running across the button towards the centre, almost like sun rays. It measures 20.50mm diameter x 6.43mm thick, weighing 5.48g. It has a cream patina. These flat lead alloy buttons seem to date to 13th-15th century (see Bailey 2004, p.16,17).
