Description: | A incomplete copper-alloy purse bar, roughly one half of the bar survives with an incomplete attachment plate, it measures 37mm in length and c11mm in width. One terminal has a cylindrical shaft projecting from its centre, this would probably have had a decorative terminal knop on it originally. The other incomplete terminal has the remains of a central vertical perforation, which ran through the central block, the shank of the now missing loop would have originally have passed through this hole. The bar in between either terminal has transverse grooves at either end and a narrowed centre. Projecting from the lower edge is the remains of the attachment plate with three circular holes through it. This incomplete purse bar is likely to be late 15th or 16th century in date. | 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: | 1450
