Description: | Post Medieval cast copper alloy domed circular mount. The mount has a plain front and a concave back with two integral attachment spikes attached opposite each other on the back of the rim. One spike is complete and bent inwards 90 degrees, the other has an old break near the base. It is 16.3mm in diameter, 4.2mm thick excluding the apikes, 8.4mm including, and weighs 2.12 grams. Such simple thin metal geometic shaped mounts with integral attachment spikes were popular from c.1500 to at least 1900 AD on harness and other straps.
