Description: | Incomplete cast sub-circular lead button of possible Medieval date. Diameter c. 22mm, and 2mm thick. Weight 6.89g. The button is sub-circular in plan and the front has eight equally spaced inward-pointing chevrons in relief, around the edge. The central area is dented and has a small hole which is old damage. There appears to be a decorative pellet in the centre. The back has an integral misshapen loop which is 8mm wide and 9mm in length. On the back, a casting seam extends from one side to the other over the periphery of the loop. The surfaces have a deposit of whitish grey lead oxide. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Frank Basford | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
