Description: | A copper-alloy sword-belt mount of suggested 16th century date (Read, 2001, p. 39).
The mount is missing its uppermost portion. The central element is truncated oval in plan, has a domed upper surface and a small rivet hole near the middle of the bottom edge. A band of two transverse ridges separates this central element from the bottom part, the latter of which comprises a ring with an irregular central hole. Extending from the right hand side of this ring is a perforated circular lobe. The reverse of the domed central part of the mount is hollow.
The mount is heavily corroded. It measures 35.4mm long, 22.4mm wide and 4.2mm thick. The weight is 4.78g. | Subjects: | Sword-belt | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
