Description: | Copper-alloy horse-harness pendant, circular and slightly domed. The edge has been decorated with punchmarks which have weakened the metal, causing the punched part to break away leaving an indented outline. There is a trace of gilding close to the edge. At the top is a suspension loop turned at right angles, and to either side of this the metal was thicker; the punchmarks survive here better, and look like simple dots. Length, with suspension loop, 35 mm; width, 24 mm; thickness, 4 mm.
