Description: | Copper-alloy mount made from a piece of strip folded in half to form a basically rectangular shape. The attachment edge on the front is decoratively if crudely shaped, with a wide V-shaped cut-out in the centre and a narrower one to either side. The back plate is cut straight across. Below this is a single off-centre copper-alloy rivet, now rather corroded. Then comes a more central circular hole in both front and back plates, 3 mm in diameter; this is probably decorative, but could have served to reinforce a pin hole. At the fold, each corner has a large rectangular cut-out and the fold is expanded to create a loop. | 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: | 1200
