Description: | Silver button, or cufflink half, of Post-Med date, c.1675-c.1700. This button is almost identical to NLM-B7FA77 which also has two hearts stamped below a crown within a circluar border. The crowns differ in design. The edge of the button flares backwards rather than turning backwards at a 90 degree angle. A crack is present around just less than half of the corner between the top of the button and the flared skirt. At the centre of the reverse is a sub-rectangular attachment loop. The external attachment loop dimensions are: width 5.90mm, height 3.86mm and thickness 1.37mm.This button weighs 0.87g, has a diameter of 13.24mm at the top of the button flaring out to 15.28mm. The flared skirt is 0.45mm thick and the button has a depth of 2.74mm that increases to 4.63mm when including the height of the attachment loop in the measurement.See TAR 2008, p.181 & 363, no.446, 2008 T776, NLM-B7FA77.
