Description: | A copper-alloy object of uncertain date. The object appears to be part of a sword or dagger scabbard frame. It may be Roman in date but no exact parallel could be found and it could conceivably be much later. It consists of a square plate measuring 25.1mm on its side. This plate has an indented square border around its outer edge and is flanked on each of its two ?vertical sides by a narrow flat rim. These rims are set at a lower level than the plate and have indented vertical lines on their upper surface. The reverse of the piece is plain. The object is heavily corroded and incomplete. Overall it measures 38.4mm high by 32.9mm wide and 5.8mm thick. It weighs 13.19g.
