Description: | Roman cast copper alloy mount or stud. It is circular in plan with a concave upper surface with a central raised boss. There is a depressed circle at the centre of the boss. The lower surface is slightly convex with a corroded and incomplete iron projection. The edge of the mount is angles at 45 degrees and has cast vertical ridges arranged in pairs around the circumference. The space between each set of pairs is slightly curved. The mount has a mid-green patina. It is 33.08mm in diameter, 14.09mm thick and weighs 23.15 grams. It is broadly similar to 'bell' shaped mounts, however this example is not as pronounced in its curvature.
