Description: | An unidentified cast copper alloy object of Unknown date. Length 24.0mm, width 17.1mm and 4.9mm thick. Weight 10.75g.The object is sub-rectangular in plan and viewed form the side it is slightly curved. At the possible front face it has a raised rim, although on most of one of the longer sides, the rim is absent. Within the rim are six slightly raised transverse parallel panels. These panels are flat and all have a width of about 1.6 mm. The space between each panel is also about 1.6mm. The area of panelling is coated with tin or silver. There are also traces of this metal on parts of the rim. The edges of the object vary in thickness from 3.3mm to 4.9mm. The rear face is uneven and reflects the shape of the mould in which it was cast. This object was found within plough-soil about 2.0m from a similar artefact. See Portable Antiquities Scheme find: IOW-2E48B6.The piece is in good condition and where it is not coated it has a shiny mid-green patina.
