Description: | A copper alloy hooked tag. It is 29.4mm long, 13.9mm wide and 3.2mm thick. It has a shield shaped body which is scalloped and has a central motif in relief which may be a thistle. If so, the loop is at the top and is trapezoidal. The hook projects from the base and bends back at the end but the tip is missing. There are two small circular holes through the body, one at each side at the top. These may be sewing holes, and are not common. Hooked tags are generally agreed to date from the Tudor period.
