Description: | A cast copper alloy object, which could be a mount. The object is cruciform shaped. The length of the two arms do differ, one measures 41.7mm the other measures 41.32mm. The terminals of the arms all are well rounded. The object is slightly convex and the centre is raised above the level of the arms. In the centre of the object there is a rounded knop. This knop is surrounded by four holes, which are in line with the each arm. At the rounded terminal of each arm there are also holes drilled through the copper alloy. The reverse is concave and the eight holes can be seen. The object measures 5.53mm in height from the knop to the lowest point on the reverse. The object appears to be complete, but the surface is quite worn and pitted. There does not appear to be any breaks on the object. The metal is a mid greenish-brown colour. This object remains largely undatable. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Liz Walker | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
