It is attached by a dome-headed rivet to an incomplete backing, consisting of an oval plate,(13.45mm x 15.13mm) pierced through the centre by the rivet. A narrow, spiked terminal projects for 8.95mm from the disc, and an incomplete bar, with the tip broken off, and bent backwards, protrudes from the opposite side.
