There is a broken circular-section stud emerging from the reverse to afix it to something else.The decoration is of a human face incised upon the outer surface. There is a wide nose and eyes with no pupils. A series of small verticals delineate eyebrows and the mouth is represented by a semi-circle. The hair is recreated through a series of straight lines. The sex is somewhat indeterminate.
