The attachment loop of this tag is rectangular in shape and measures 13mm in width and 6mm in height. The plate is oval in shape, 16mm in length and 12mm in width and has a relief bust on it of a woman, to keep this bust upright the tag would have to be held with the hook uppermost. On the back face the reverse of this bust is concave. The hook is incomplete due to an old break. This hooked tag is probably a dress hook and is early post-medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
