Description: | A cast copper alloy mount of Medieval date. An 'acorn' type. Incomplete.There is a raised collar at the top of the 'cup', from which the sub-triangular acorn extends, terminating with a small semi-circular knop at the apex. Only approximately 50% of the cup remains, and there are signs that it was decorated with cross-hatching. The reverse is slightly convex and has one integrally cast lug remaining which is bent over at right-angles. The mount is unevenly corroded with signs of bronze disease.A similar example can be seen at ESS-D0F166.
