Description: | Anglo-Saxon copper alloy and gilt mount, 27mm in diameter and 1.75mm thick. The object's surface has a plain border 3mm thick and a plain central area 6mm in diameter. The rest of the object is decorated with a series of raised lines. One raised line borders the inner circle and consists of a line of raised dots which have been gilded. There are a further three similar concentric lines, the outer lines are made up of dots whilst the central line is solid. This decoration is interrupted by four bands of three raised lines, 3mm wide, which radiate from the centre in a 'cross' formation. These have the same pattern as the main bands which have a central solid line. This whole area has been gilded. The reverse has four circular sectioned rivets arranged to form a square which are 6mm long. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
