Description: | A circular silver button, hollow, decorated with a crowned facing bust, possibly depicting Charles II. An attachment loop on the reverse is broken. Two small holes on the reverse were probably to allow the escape of gasses during the manufacturing process. The diameter of the button measures 15.36mm and it is 1.48mm thick, or 3.88mm including the loop. The button weighs 0.83g. The button was submitted as potential treasure, but has been dated by the British Museum to the 19th century. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1800
