The foot has a side extension forming the catch-plate which is now broken or worn, before narrowing and curving back on itself to terminate in a stylized animal head consisting of a disc with a snout. There is a single stamped dot in the centre of the top of the animal head. With the pin and spring missing. Length (at least) 62mm, width of bow at maximum 6mm, depth of bow at maximum 5mm. Similar to an example in Hattatt (2000, 288, fig.147, no.725). 4th - 3rd century BC.
