Description: | Medieval copper alloy lozenge-shaped domed belt mount with one separate rivet. The head measures 13.8x11.2x1.5mm, the shank 16.2mm in length and 1.9x1.8mm in square section (narrowing to 1.6x1.6mm at the end opposite the head).
The shank extends through the head. All patina has been lost and with it any decoration/ signs of gilding.
Probably 13th to 15th century in date. The mount weighs 1.15g.
The mount is comparable with those rectangular domed mounts, with separate rivets, in Egan and Pritchard, 1991, pp.197 and 199. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
