    Old looking button sized object

    My brother found this in his yard. His house dates back to the 1700s. I offered to try to find out what it is and snapped a few pictures. He has the item so this is all I have. The picture of the back did not come out that well but it has a notch on the edge. It is solid & heavy for it's size.

    Thank you!

    Hey Bramble, it looks like some type of mold; maybe a snap button mold? I lighten the darker pic for you. Interesting find, Breezie

    Thank you Breezie! Definitely some similarities with what you posted - great thinking!

    I will see if what I can find using that lead.
