Description: | Late medieval/ early post medieval copper alloy diamond-shaped mount decorated with a c.5mm diameter head rivet at each corner and with two attachment spikes on the reverse, one of which is broken.
The mount measures 19x17.1 but the length is extended to 25.5mm with the intact attachment spike which is bent outwards. The rivets stand c.5mm high.
Weighs 3.48g.
Although no patina remains, this mount is quite decorative and may have been gilded. It would have been attached to a belt.
