Description: | The mount is a long and thin strip of copper-alloy. One end is oval. There are four rivet holes on the obverse side. These are aligned centrally along the length of the strip. Two of the rivet holes are found in close proximity to each other near the oval end of the strip. The other two rivet holes are placed about 5/6ths of the way up the strip (moving away from the oval end), and are set slightly further apart than the other two. The rivet hole farthest from the oval end is roughly half the size of the other three. There are two horizontal lines, forming a band across the strip, which are broken up by the third rivet hole (moving away from the oval end), which is positioned in the centre of these lines.
Roughly half-way along the length of the strip is a set of 3 concentric circles, spaced at an equal distance from each other. The central core circle is solid. The largest outer circle reaches the edge of the strip. Adjacent to this set of circles (moving toward the oval end of the strip) is another set of three concentric circles with a solid central core circle, spaced at an equal distance from each other. This set of circles is interrupted by the second rivet hole (moving away from the oval end), which breaks across the middle and outer circles. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
