Description: | Fragment of Iron Age crescentic cast object, probably the decorative element from within one ring of a three-link bridle bit. The crescent is of D-section and is decorated on the convex side in curving relief and on the flat face with engraved lines. Externally, just below the points of the crescent there are two stubs of missing flat sectioned extensions, and the rounded excrescence in the centre of the inner curve is also incomplete. No good parallel object has been noted. >36 x >19 x 9.5mm. 1st century BC / AD.
