Description: | A cast copper-alloy stud of probable post-medieval date. The stud has a shallowly domed head, circular in plan. Its upper surface is moulded with six pellets (or annulets) spaced equally around a central pellet, all within a raised border. This pattern is perhaps a debased version of a pattern on another stud recorded on this database, ref. SF-2D65A2. The central shaft is square in cross-section and tapers gradually from the head to the point. It has been bent to one side as a result of old damage. The artefact is a corroded grey/green colour with areas of off-white corrosion product. It is here dated to about the 16th century by comparison with the other PAS example.
