Title
A copper alloy button and loop fastener
Description
English: Knotted button A copper alloy button. It has a strange design of a thin length of copper alloy twisted and knotted into a rough ball shape. It measures 13.96mm long, 10.63mm in diameter and 1.85g, with a light green and slight orange patina. It probably dates from late Medieval to post-Medieval periods, but no close parallel was found.
Date between 1400 and 1800
