Description: | Cast copper alloy strap end. The strap end is made from a single rectangular sheet of copper alloy folded over and riveted together at the attachment end. There are two rivet holes; both rivets are missing. The two terminals are concave. The surface of the strap end is decorated with an elaborate incised motif, apparently a fish or dolphin shown swimming in profile. The fins trail in motion on one side, the body is shown by a series of hatches, and the head is elongated and angular.
