Discussion: Similar examples can be found from Nottinghamshire (PAS ID: DENO-7A5936; 2011 T498).
Consequently, in terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.

A Post Medieval silver dress pin of bodkin type, sub-rectangular in cross section, c. 17th century AD. The bodkin is broken at the upper section at the point where an aperture is beginning to open. On one side below the aperture is a cast design of two transverse grooves, followed by a design made of four lines that cross each other at the centre (made of a '+' and an 'x'). At the base of this are two transverse grooves and perpendicular to this are longitudinal grooves, with a peak of longer grooves to form a triangular shape to point towards the tip of the pin. There is a maker mark possibly an 'E'. The pin tapers to a point. The reverse is has the same design.

A copper alloy jetton of the period of Edward I struck from the same dies as M. Mitchiner, Jetons, Medallets and Tokens vol. I, p. 96, no. 87. This has had silver fittings attached to the obverse consisting of a loop and what was presumably a catchplate (now broken). Thus the jetton has been transformed into a disc brooch with the cross motif of the reverse now displayed outermost. Disc brooches made from coins were a popular item of adornment in the thirteenth century and this jetton reflects that practice. The trend for them appears to die out in the early 14th century and it is likely that this modification was carried out soon after the jetton had been produced. What is unusual is that silver has been used for the attachments, strange given that these would not be seen when the brooch was being worn. They do mean, being precious metal, that the brooch is now considered as Treasure.
Jetton dates to the 1280s; modification carried out in the late 13th or early 14th century.
