Description: | Post medieval cast copper alloy button with integral shank and incised design of a flower on the front. The button is circular. It has a flat front and back. The front has a design of a six petaled flower with pointed stamens, within a plain line border, the petals are faint but the stamens very clear. The back is rougher with an integral shank running across two thirds of the width. The shank is a tab, roughly D-shaped in profile with a large circular hole drilled through it. The hole is now mostly filled with concreted soil. It is 15.0mm in diameter, 8.0mm in thickness and the weight is 2.4g.A very similar example is illustrated by Read (2005:34), no.120, dated to the 17th to 18th centuries.
