It measures 27.36mm in diameter, stands 5.68mm high and weighs 7.6g. The button is hemi-spherical, being concave to the reverse. The outer surface has moulded raised decoration in the form of a central pellet with six semi-circular 'petals' around at the centre, and around this four equidistant and worn stems lying at an angle with a leaf at the base and trefoil (or tulip-like) head at the other end. Read (2005, p.36) suggests a mid-17th century date for this style of button, due to numerous examples from datable contexts along the Thames Foreshore and archaeological spoil heaps in London. He further suggests that they may extend somewhat later. -1.958416SWALEBUTTONKENT2012-01-16T12:16:50ZSOUTH EAST AND LONDON31.51600Copper alloyKENT-415321.jpg364354Jennifer JacksonJennifer Jackson481731QueensboroughKENT-4153214Restricted Access4.8images/jjackson/2012-01-16T12:17:00Z11700POST MEDIEVAL51.4148380.9 A complete cast copper alloy button, of Post Medieval dating (17th to 18th Centuries AD).

The head has a small central pellet, radiating out from which are eight scrolled petals, all within a raised ropework border. Such floral or solar decoration on buttons with similar bosses can be seen in Bailey (1995, 27; ref. 7.19) The examples illustrated in this book are dated to the 16th or 17th centuries.
