Description: | A flat, rectangular copper alloy object. The greyish appearance of the metal may be caused by over cleaning. A 9mm wide strip extends from the edge of the object but ends in a broken edge. The rectangular part is decorated with a stamped cross in a circular depression, with faint cross-hatching around.
The cross is made from a raised border. Each arm is flared, and ends in three round-ended projections, forming a Cross of Toulouse. A similar motif can be seen on several square mounts and harness pendants from Norfolk (Ashley 2002, nos. 174-177; fig. 19, p. 18). | 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: | 1250
