Description: | Copper alloy 16th/ 17th century 'female' part of a hooked tag. It is circular in shape with a rectangular loop to one side (14x7mm) and on the side opposite a triangular projection ending in a circular loop 6mm diameter (internal 2.5mm). Another two circular loops lie on the edge of the tag, nearer to the rectangular loop. If the rectangular loop is left, they are to top and bottom. The circular area is decorated with a central cross, at the centre of which is a six-petalled flower and at either end of the vertical stem (if the rectangular loop is again left) another six-petalled flower. In each quadrant is a curling leaf. The reverse of the tag is flat. Measures 33x25mm. Weighs 4.72g. | 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: | 1501
