Description: | A cast copper-alloy Romano-British mount. The circular openwork mount has three evenly spaced raised knobs on the outer border. Inside the border, the mount is divided into three openwork sections each of the raised knobs. The three sections meet in the centre with a slightly larger raised knob. Filling each divided section is a circular loop, which meets the outer border and central knob. The back of the mount is flat. A circular raised patch of copper-alloy in the centre of the reverse may suggest that the mount had a attachment loop or shank.
The condition of the mount is quite worn. It is covered with a brown patina and only patches of the light green copper-alloy are visible. The diameter is 41.8mm, the maximum thickness is 9.1mm and the weight is 22.28g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Staves, Lisa - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
