Description: | An initial letter E made from cast copper alloy. It is possibly from a monumental brass. The letter is a Lombardic E with curved back and a vertical bar joining the sides and central bar. There are short curved projections to the top and bottom of the bar. The letter is 37mm in length and 31.45mm wide. It weighs 13.13g. It is flat, and 3.14mm thick at the centre of the curved back, and 2.45mm thick at the vertical bar. The reverse of the letter shows signs of wear, and the upper surface is slightly convex. An identical example comes from Arwarton, Suffolk, and is recorded, see SF8287. | 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
