Description: | A copper-alloy object which is probably a mount of medieval date. The style of this piece shares similiarities with the shield-shaped mount series of the 13th and 14th centuries, hence a similar date is tentatively suggested.
The object has a sub-rectangular plate, measuring 19.8mm long, by 13.6mm wide and 0.2mm thick. No detail remains on the surface of the plate. The means of attachment is provided by a small copper-alloy rivet, which has been inserted into a hole at the mid point of the (?)upper edge of the plate.
The piece is slightly bent and corroded. It weighs 0.84g. | 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: | 1200
