Description: | The object consists of two cast plates of copper alloy riveted together by two iron rivets. One plate is a triangular shape in plan, with a slightly rounded tip and the edges either side slightly bevelled. The 'basal' edge is a broken edge. Towards the tip of the plate a iron rivet protrudes, and towards the centre of the base there is a second iron rivet which is now flush with the surface. However there is a large area of iron staining around it. The plate on the reverse is a slightly smaller sub-traingualr shape, however all its edges are broken edges. The iron rivet towards the tip is visible with a sub-rectangular shaped head. The second rivet is not visible due to the iron staining. The surfaces of the plates have a well developed mid green patina. Where the edges are abraded, reveals a dark grey/green colour. | 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: | 43
