Description: | Oval pendant made from copper-alloy sheet, now a little bent. In the centre of one of the long sides is a broken suspension loop, also made from the same piece of thin sheet and in the same plane as the rest of the pendant. It appears to have had a square perforation. The pendant is decorated with rouletting, which produces a double line of tiny punch-marks with transverse lines in between. There is a rouletted border around a cinquefoil, with a small inner circle in the centre. There is some iron corrosion on both front and reverse - a streak from the loop downwards on the front, and a patch around the loop on the reverse. The rouletting, and the shiny green patina, combine to suggest some age for this object - perhaps early post-medieval.
