Description: | Fragmentary sheet of gilded copper alloy with rivet holes which may be a buckle plate. It is basically triangular, with two convex sides forming a kind of shield shape. At the apex is a separate copper-alloy rivet with large, slightly domed head. There is another rivet hole at one corner but the other corner is torn away. Some missing metal between the two corners without rivets may indicate the position of a pin slot. The object is now corroded to a thin sliver of metal with a matt red-brown colour. A medieval date is certain. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
