Description: | An unidentified object formed from a plate of cast copper alloy. In plan the object resembles the letter T with one arm missing. The plate is flat and curved in section. The base of the object is angled at 90? to form a small foot.
Above the foot is a rectangular element with concave sides. This is divided from the rest of the object by an incised line. Above this, the width of the object increases towards the top. This part of the object is decorated with a set of two vertical incised lines inside the vertical edges.
The top edge has two semi circular concavities placed between these lines. The arm of the T extends out from just below the top edge, and appears to be broken. It is not clear whether there was once a corresponding arm on the opposite edge.
The reverse of the object shows post medieval file marks.
The object is worn with a mid green patina. It is probably post medieval 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: | 1500
