Description: | Copper alloyMount fragment, as identified by finder. Cast mount with a discoid concavity on the reverse. A rivet of diameter 1.9mm passes though the centre of the display face, and the centre of the hollow on the reverse. The finder discerns an anthropomorphic form to the display face, depicting the nose and hair of a mask, with its features formed by deep angled cuts. The latter resemble the sometimes crudely executed hatching on Early Medieval bone and antler objects, and this reporter is uncertain whether an anthropomorphic appearance is intended. Suggested date: Early Medieval to Medieval, 850-1100.Length: 16.1mm, Width: 13.6mm, Thickness: 4.0mm, Weight: 2.52gms.
