Description: | A copper alloy mount, probably from harness, which consists of twelve radiating spikes which are alternately long and short. The mount has a diameter of 56.4mm and is 7.1mm thick. The fronts of the spikes are moulded into a rounded shape, but the reverse is flat and an integral rivet projects from the back of each long spike. The design is similar to rowel spurs of the fifteenth century, and this mount is likely to date from a similar time.
