Has anybody seen this before, a lump of silver added to the back, weight is now 4.2 gms ?

That's all wrong. It looks like someone has tried to make a copy respectable.

Maybe a copy made as a button or pin/brooch

My first thought was brooch but the mount (lump of metal stuck on) is nothing like I have seen previously. Anyway if any one collects such items (fakes, copies, oddities) please just pm me an address and I will post it to you.

Looks like an electrotype, check the edge for a tiny RR ( Rob Ready) if so its a British Museum piece
