The object has been cast as one piece. It is formed of a rectangular strip of copper alloy, which is rectangular is section. It one terminal of the strip there is a rounded loop. Next to the loop there is a rectangular projecting knop which projects at right angles from the main plate. On one side of the main body of the object below the knop there is a rounded extension around the knop.
The other terminal has a rounded projection ?? resembling a bit from a key. This terminal is badly damaged and worn. So it is impossible to say for certain what this object is.
