Description: | A cast copper alloy object which is leaf shaped.
One terminal has a circular loop extending from it ?? it is now broken. The object has a flat reverse and a rounded front.
The front surface of the object has been decorated with rows of enameling. The central row has been further decorated with a row of incised rings. Some traces of red enamel survive.
The metal is quite worn and corroded. The metal is a light brownish-green colour.
An extensive search through the various textbooks and reports could not find a parallel.
This artefact is either going to be Roman or medieval in date, but remains unidentified. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
