Description: | Cast copper alloy button, domed, hollow underside containing a 5.8mm diameter loop cast or soldered into place. This is crushed and now lies parallel to the button's back. The face of the button bears a recessed panel which contains, in relief, three cannon, set in a vertical column. Above them is band containing three bezants separated by stacks of cannon balls. The underside bore an inscription, now damaged by corrosion but the letters '..I LL.......ARP...can be read which must represent part of the manufacturer's name.
