Description: | Copper-alloy 'propeller-shaped' belt-stiffener, made up of a central circular lobe and top and bottom flaring lobes. The central lobe is decorated with a large central dot, surrounded by two wide concentric grooves and a narrow outer groove. Around this are eight rather irregularly set small ring-and-dot motifs. The top and bottom lobes have bevelled edges except for the corners. The sides have grooved borders which run right across the unbevelled corners to form small nicks at the edge. Between these grooves, the top and bottom have a double grooved border each enclosing a large central copper-alloy rivet (each 5 mm long). Just inside each rivet is another ring-and-dot motif. 48 x 20 mm.
