Description: | Flat rectangular copper-alloy mount measuring 29 x 15 mm, with a central hole measuring 5 mm in diameter. It is in excellent condition, with a highly polished front; this has bevelled edges and is decorated with a border of rocker-arm engraving around a saltire of similar rocker-arm which is cut by the hole. There is a separate copper-alloy rivet in the centre of each short edge; the rivets are 4 mm long. This mount may be purely decorative, or it may have served to reinforce the holes for the pin. | 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: | 1066
