Description: | A silver button or pin head made of strands of silver wire in a basket weave pattern, forming a spherical knob. There are 5 or 6 strands of wire in each band. This object was found on a site which has produced many Early Medieval finds, but this object is more likely to be a Post Medieval to Modern small button or hatpin head. It can be compared to Portable Antiquities Scheme records: SF-ECD665, a finger ring, LANCUM-D87896, a fitting, and KENT-A512A4, a woven ferrule. This is probably Victorian.As it is likely not to be 300 years old, the object does not fall under the rules of the 1996 Treasure Act.
