Description: | Treasure Report: 2006 T392
A medieval, circular stud with a short, tapering shank. In the centre of the roundel is an animal in low relief, probably a boar.
The stud is silver and dates from fifteenth century.
For a stud of similar structure, probably dating from the fourteenth century, see Egan and Pritchard, Dress Accessories (London 1991) p.243, cat.1300.
In terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.
