Description: | A copper-alloy object which is probably a mount of medieval date. The style of this piece shares similiarities with the shield-shaped mount series of the 13th and 14th centuries, hence a similar date is tentatively suggested. The object has a sub-rectangular plate, measuring 19.8mm long, by 13.6mm wide and 0.2mm thick. No detail remains on the surface of the plate. The means of attachment is provided by a small copper-alloy rivet, which has been inserted into a hole at the mid point of the (?)upper edge of the plate.The piece is slightly bent and corroded. It weighs 0.84g.
