Description: | A complete copper alloy strap fitting. This strap fitting is unusual and consists of a circular concave disc, which measures 14mm in diameter. The convex or front face of this disc has traces of tinning on it. Attached to the underside of this disc, with a single rivet, there is a piece of rectangular-shaped sheet copper alloy. This tapers to a point at one end and flares into a circular shape, with a circular perforation through it, at the other. It is 20mm in length and 6mm in width. No parallel could be found for this object and although it is most likely to be a strap fitting of some kind its date remains uncertain.
