Description: | Post Medieval copper alloy mount. The rectangular plate is roughly symmetrical, with two semi-circular indentations along each of the longer edges, which form three rectangular zones. The central rectangular zone has two shallow 'v' shaped indentations on both external edges. The outer two rectangular zones have a horizontal indentation, with a parallel ropework design on the outer edge. The plate measures 24.6mm by 11.63mm, and is 1.63mm thick. It has a rectangular cross section. The reverse of the mount has two integrally cast projecting rivets, both of which have been bent to form a rectangular space between the rivets and the plate, which can hold a thickness of 7.77mm. Each rivet is rectangular with a slightly rounded sub-rectangular cross section. The rivets are both approximately 4.23mm across where they join the plate, tapering to 3.3mm at their tip. Taking the plate and belt rivets into account, the mount has a maximum thickness of 12.07mm (which included the rectangular space between the plate and rivets). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
