Description: | This object consists of a flat piece of copper alloy sheet, broken on all sides and measuring maximum of 16.5mm x 12.5mm,with two raised rectangular cast shapes 6mm x 4mm on the upper surface. On the underside is attached a copper alloy strip 5mm wide and 0.5mm thick which was apparently fastened at both ends together to the sheet, either by in-casting or by brazing/soldering, to create a loop for mounting. The strip, which is folded over, is now attached at one end only. Although Cu alloy, it has an area of silvering which appears to be a solder residue rather than a decorative finish. The funtion and date are unknown. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Plunkett, Tom - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
