Description: | Gilt cast copper alloy button with central incised rosette and raised foliage swirling around it, surrounded by a circle of fine pellets at the edge of the button. There is a broken attachment loop and a linear casting seam on either side of it on the back of the button and evidence of gilding on the front and back.Bailey (2004) illustrates a gilt button with foliage pattern on page 56, Fig.9.127, which is dated to the 18th century and a smaller button with raised foliage around a central ornament on page 75, Fig.9.309, which is dated from the 18th to the early 19th century.
