Description: | A complete Post Medieval cast copper alloy decorative mount (18th century). The mount has a D-shaped section with a flat back, and is pointed oval in plan. Running vertically at the centre of the upper side of the mount there is a decorative, thick raised band divided into three sections, the outer two raised and the inner recessed. The bases of the raised sections create slight projections where they meet the upper and lower edges of the mount. On either side of the central raised band are four horizontal incisions which are vertically parallel. The remainder of the mount's upper surface is without decoration. On the reverse of the mount, a projection at the central outermost point of one end is probably the remainder of a cast internal rivet. The mount is 44.9mm long, 7.2mm wide and 2.5mm thick. It weighs 4.40 grams.
