Description: | A roughly circular mount with a lobe at either end, made from a flat plate of copper alloy. The surface is decorated with crude annular stamps, and bears the traces of some gilding (<5%). On the back are two hooks, bent over which would presumably have attached the piece to a belt or strap. The piece is well preserved, with a dark green colour and slight patina. The mount is likely to be Medieval. | 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: | 1300
