Description: | A Post-Medieval copper alloy hooked tag (17th century probably). The hooked tag has an oval-shaped plate with three perforated lobes (only one complete) and a wide, flat hook (width: 6.43mm). The plate is decorated on the front surface with stamped ring and dots around the edge and a foliate pattern in the centre. The decoration is partially obscured through wear and the patchy patina. The reverse is undecorated. This hooked tag is one of a pair where the other would have had a slot for the hook to attach. Patchy mid green patinas with areas of red/brown base metal showing through. Dimensions: length: 35.76mm; width: 24.95mm; thickness: 4.37mm; weight: 4.96g.
