Description: | Complete copper alloy Post-Medieval horse harness boss. The mount is circular in shape with a flattened outer rim and a raised central section, which is concave to the reverse. The outer face of the flattened section is decorated with what appears to be worn curlicue moulding, whilst the central section is moulded in the shape of a crude, probably human face. However, all this decoration is extremely worn and difficult to make out. To the reverse are the remains of two integral rivets. Much of the reverse is also covered with iron corrosion.Diameter: 56.74mm, Thickness: 14.99mm, Weight: 49.52g
