Description: | Copper alloy incomplete cheekpiece with single lozengiform terminal with large oval perforation and knobs on three corners. The surviving bar proceeds from a boss and the boss is surmounted with a single ring-and-dot ornament in the casting. The boss is asymmetrical, beyond it the other bar and terminal of this cheekpiece is missing due to an old break. On the reverse the bar between the perforation and the boss is scooped in appearance, having been left incompletely filled with metal at the time of casting, though this is intentional rather than a casting flaw. This cheekpiece is 37.8mm in surviving length and 23.4mm across terminal (boss tips) and 0.4-0.53mm range in thickness.
