County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete Medieval lead alloy button, probably dating 14th - 15th century. The button is biconvex and the weight suggests it is solid. There are moulded lines on the back and around the circumference. The two remnants of the missing shank indicate it had a circular section. There are small areas on the surface which have a polished black appearance which stand out from the grey of the lead alloy. It is unclear if this is a surface treatment like the linseed coating on copper alloy. Read illustrates a similar button (2005, 23, no. 70) which is Medieval in date. However, this but…

Object type: CLOTH SEAL
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead alloy cloth seal probably dating from the reign of James I, 1603 - 1625. It is one disc of a probable four disc seal, with broken tabs which would have linked the discs at each end, and a damaged rivet on the reverse. The rivet would have been passed through a hole in one of the other discs before being stamped to press it together and seal it. The only design visible is on the front of the surviving disc. It has a crowned thistle flanked at the top by the letter I (R) (standing for James Rex?) and a legend which reads COLCH[ESTE]R. Compare to NMS-631284 which cites Egan (1994)…
