Description: | Terminal from the arm of a copper alloy spur of post-medieval (c.17th C) date. The reverse of the object is flattened, while the obverse is convex and ornamented with openwork, consisting of three circular perforations (the central perforation is slightly smaller than those either side of it, while one of the outer ones shows evidence of wear) surrounded by undulose moulding. The overall effect may perhaps have been zoomorphic or foliate. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ashby, Steven - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
