Description: | Copper alloy cast and slightly curving scalloped openwork plate, with a circular attachment hole of 5.4mm diameter with ferrous staining round its edge on the reverse. The brownish colour of the object recalls the finish of other Viking Age finds from the area, though a Romanesque date is possible given local persistence of Anglo-Scandinavian material culture. A shiny material occurs in recesses of the moulded decoration; probably from recent treatment of the object. Suggested date: Early Medieval to Medieval, 1000-1100.Length: 29.2mm, Width: 27.2mm, Thickness: 2.13mm, Weight: 5.23gms.
