Description: | A copper-alloy hooked tag, 32mm in length and 15mm in width. This hooked tag has been cast in one piece. At its top there is a rectangular-shaped loop measuring 12mm in length and 5mm in height, this flares into the plate of the tag which is roughly rectangular in shape and decorated with an open work design which incorporates a horizontal row of four circular perforations and then two more perforations, one below each of the two end ones of the first row. In the centre of these perforations there is a fleur-de-lis. The plate tapers into the hook, the junction between the hook and the plate is decorated with two transverse rows of three circular knops. The hook is 15mm in length and incomplete, due to an old break, at its tip. The back face is plain and undecorated. This hooked tag is early Post-Medieval in date. | 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 | Temporal: | 1540 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
