Description: | Late Saxon Tongue-shaped copper alloy strap-end of Thomas?? (2004) Class E Type 1, front of split end missing, rear incomplete. Around eight openwork apertures the front is decorated in relief, along with drilled blind holes, two engraved ovals and three ring-and-dots. There are concave mouldings on the reverse.
