Description: | A complete cast copper alloy mount of Post-Medieval date (AD 1600 - AD 1700). Length: 22.1mm; width: 15.5mm and 11.0mm thick. Weight: 2.31g.The mount is quatrefoil/lozenge-shaped in plan, convex at the front. The central part of the rear face is concave. At the centre of the rear there is an integral spike with a length of about 9.5mm. It is square in cross-section and tapers evenly to a point. The front face appears to have had moulded decoration although this is indeterminate due to wear.This mount is generally worn and is mainly covered with a light green patina.A similar mount dated to the seventeenth century has been published by Brian Read (Read 2001, 27, ref. 252).
