Description: | Incomplete early post medieval openwork copper alloy hooked tag with a broken attachment loop (old break, very worn). It measures 32.3mm in length (probably its original length) and is max.18.5mm wide. The plate is 1.1mm thick and the object weighs 2.06g.
The plate is circular (max.width) and openwork. At the centre is a T design with pointed ends and a jagged cross bar, slightly like an anchor, although the openwork ovals and circles surrounding it are not rope-like.
The hook extends from the plate with a double-rib moulding. The hook is D-shaped in section and curls back on itself.
The plate is flat on the underside and the openwork decroation is triangular in section.
Probably 16th/ 17th century in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
