A closure (10) is provided for a container. The closure (10) has a body (12) and a lid (14). The closure (10) includes a tamper-indicating member (54) connected to the body (12) of the closure (10) by an anchor member (64) received in an anchor member-receiving aperture (68) defined in the closure body. The tamper-indicating member (54) is also connected along a frangible junction (60) to the lid of the closure. A plug member (62) extends from the tamper-indicating member (54) and is receivable in a plug member-receiving aperture (66) defined in the body. When the tamper-indicating member (54) is depressed to force the plug member (62) into the plug member-receiving aperture (66), the frangible junction (60) is broken, and the tamperindicating member (54) is retained in its depressed position. This provides an indication that the closure may have been previously opened. Also, an overhanging portion (60a) of the lid (14) can be readily engaged by a finger to facilitate opening of the lid (14) relative to the body (12) of the closure (10).
