Description: | A lead-alloy button of Medieval to post-Medieval date.The solid-cast head of the button is plano-convex, the upper surface decorated by a relief-moulded equal-armed cross with three pellets in each quarter and a ring at the centre. A linear casting seam extends across the reverse, passing through the centre point, where there is a now-squashed, rectangular loop.Dimensions: diameter: 22.9mm; thickness: 9.9mm. Weight: 23g.The design on this button may be derived from that seen on the reverse of the Medieval long-cross coinage.
