Description: | Strap-end, now consisting of two pieces of copper-alloy sheet held together by a single separate copper-alloy rivet at one end. One piece is broken off at 22.5 mm long; it is decorated with a line of rocker-arm engraving down each long edge, and an irregular central longitudinal grooved zig-zag made up of punchmarks. In each of the angles of the zig-zag is a short longitudinal groove, similarly made up of punchmarks. The other piece of copper alloy is also probably broken, but survives to 35.5 mm long; it is undecorated. The maximum width, at the attachment end, is 8.5 mm; this tapers to 7 mm wide at the broken end. Probably 13th or 14th century.
