Description: | A possible front or back plate from a medieval or post-medieval sword or dagger scabbard chape. The artefact consists of a chevron shaped, thin sheet of metal, folded at a right angle at the bottom. At the top there are two rivet holes, one is broken. Between these rivet holes there is a chevron shaped gap. The roughness of the edges to this gap suggests that this shape is a result of a break, rather than a design, and a faint semi-circular nick in the edge suggests the presence of other broken rivet holes.
