The break has the same dark green patina as the rest of the surface suggesting the damage occurred in antiquity. At the top of the bow there appears to be the remains of a single perforated lug. The spring and pin are broken and missing.Dimensions: length: 33.15mm; width: 12.65mm; thickness: 21.29mm; weight: 7.49g.
