Description: | Copper alloyPossible harness boss fragment. Pressed metal fitting, originally circular with a thicker border and thinner in the middle, but now torn. The finder notes five circular impressions resembling ring-and-dot (of diameter 2.8mm) on the display face of the object. However, one of these is surrounded by a wider circular impression (of diameter 22.8mm) on the display face; putative ring-and-dot are also visible on the reverse along with larger circular impressions surrounding them, so this reporter is inclined to regard their resemblance to Early Medieval decoration as fortuitous. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1700.Diameter (estimated): 44mm, Thickness (maximum): 1.13mm, Weight: 6.24gms.
