Description: | A fragment of a probable silver clothes fastener of composite construction. What survives is the truncated heart-shaped outer part of an openwork tag with the projecting stump of the missing hook. A separately-attached silver backing plate has been pierced with two circular holes of uncertain purpose but possibly a later repair.This item is more than 300 years old and composed of more than 10% precious metal. It therefore should be considered Treasure under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996.
