Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy unidentified object of unknown date. Length 38mm, width 29mm and 9mm thick. Weight 7.91g. The object is cruciform in plan and the centre is convex in umbonate form. Each arm is different in length, as measured from the centre. The dimensions are, in a clockwise direction, 15mm, 16mm, 23mm and 13mm. The arms taper from the centre and are sub-circular in cross-section, although the rear face of each is slightly flattened. They all terminate with a rounded point. The longer arm appears to be complete. However, due to the abraded ends of the other three arms, it is uncertain whether these are shorter due to old breaks or were originally made like this. At the centre of the rear face is an abraded stub, possibly the remains of a spike or loop. The tip of the longer arm is corroded and the other surfaces are formed by a light green patina.
