Silver button. A hollow plano-convex button with a drawn wire loop soldered to its back between two irregular holes of maximum length 2.3mm.

Silver Button front. A hollow cast hemisphere, bearing incised decoration of a triangle with diagonal hatching in each angle. The reverse bears two opposed zones of slightly expanded thickness, perhaps to engage or clench other components (now lost); these features are perhaps the only details which might argue a Modern date. Read (2005, no. 386) presents a biconvex composite button of copper alloy bearing comparable triangular incised decoration, and ascribes this to a 17th-century context. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1650-1700. This object might therefore be considered as…

Silver and copper alloy Button. Biconical, probably hollow, button, the front being markedly taller, with stub of a wire attachment loop on its back. The loop was broken during initial examination, revealing a purple tint indicating its material to be silver; the button front might also be silver or base silver. However, greenish corrosion is also present, so it must remain uncertain as to whether the object is a composite of copper alloy and silver, or whether this arises from brazing. The wire loop tends to suggest a later date than the small size and simple biconical form…
