Description: | A Post Medieval copper alloy mount (AD17th century). This is a circular mount with two bent over spikes on the reverse. The front surface is domed with the remains of a white metal coating. It is also decorated with two concentric, engraved circles forming a border around the edge. There is a flat facet on the edge in line with one of the spikes. This may possibly be the scar from a point of attachment with another mount during the manufacturing process. Alternatively this may be where another part of the mount has since broken off. The reverse is concave and the tip of one of the spikes is broken and missing. The remaining spike is bent outwards. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Sumnall, Kate - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
