Description: | A corroded and slightly bent post-medieval cast copper-alloy uniface mount in the form of an acorn. On the upper face the cup delineated from the nut by a transverse ridge. The stalk is seemingly broken. The reverse features a pair of lugs, now both vestigial, suggestive of a c. 17th-century date. The artefact has a largely red-brown patina with overlying green corrosion product. Similar mounts can be found illustrated illustrated in Read (2001, 29, 37; refs. 331-334). | Subjects: | acorn | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
