Description: | A copper-alloy object of uncertain date. The piece appears to be part of the top of a sword scabbard frame. It is possibly Roman in date but could conceivably be much later. It has part of a curved rim section at the top. This has at its centre part of the slot into which the leather scabbard would have fitted. Below this rim is the upper part of the frame. It has two faces, one of which is flat, the other being slightly angled. The reverse of these plates is slightly concave. The piece measures 52.8mm high by 23.2mm wide and 10.4mm thick. It weighs 25.64g.
