Pentagon shaped plate at the foot, the face is decorated with three sets of four incised lines, one set runs diagonally right to left the second set runs diagonally left to right and the last set runs horizontally across the top. On the reverse of the plate is a heavy catch plat that is set at an angle. The top of the pentagon has the remains of a thick circular leg 8mm diameter, this is truncated near the top of the plate.
