The headplate has a rectangular panel, with widely splayed wings and cast-in-one half-round knobs. Rectangular panel forming facets and with two transverse grooves at the top and base of a sub-triangular sectioned bow. There is no pin lug on the reverse, rather a rectangular stain of solder with a small rectangular perforation in the centre. This hole from the front appears to be blocked with solder but from the reverse with iron. Length >42mm. Width 48mm. 6th century.
