Description: | A Post Medieval cast copper-alloy acorn shaped mount, probably 1500-1700 AD. The front is slightly convex and the back concave. The larger cup is separated from the smaller nut on the front by a transverse double incised curved line. There is a small knop at the top of the nut and a rounded knop making a stub of the stalk at the base of the cup. On the back are stubs of integral rivets for attachment, one near the top and one near the bottom. It is 23.6mm long, 13.5mm wide, 2.3mm thick excluding the rivets, 3.8mm including, and weighs 2.31 grams. A similar mount is illustrated in Read (2001, 29, 37; ref. 332).
