Description: | Fragment of a cast copper alloy unidentified object which is roughly square with two opposite sides, and possibly a third, broken from old breaks. The back is flat and the front has a raised square pyramid with slightly concave sides in the centre, the corners have incised lines running down them and the top is cut flat. Between the raised section and complete edges are three irregular transverse incised lines. Along one of the broken edges is a row is small pellets. The fragment is 7.9mm by 8.0mm and 3.7mm thick; it weighs 0.98 grams.
The fragment is too small to be certain what it is part of although the style is Early Medieval, probably Carolingian (8th century). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
