Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy button of Post-Medieval date. It has a solid, undecorated biconvex head with small globular knop at the centre of the exterior face. A transverse casting line and the remains of a short integral suspension lug with circular perforation are visible on the back face, but the top of the lug is missing due to old breaks. The button measures 11.06mm in diameter, 12.23mm in height, and weighs 3.14g. Similar examples from Medieval London suggest a date in the 16th or 17th centuries AD for the current button (Egan, 2005: pp. 48-49). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
