Description: | Medieval copper alloy unidentified object. Two prongs of wire with a small triangular 'shield' in the centre. Appears to have been part of a larger object. The wire seems to have been purposely twisted. The triangular shield is 6mm in diameter and is decorated with chevrons. The area behind this has a cylindrical clump of iron corrosion. The object may be linked to hawking, perhaps a fitting for a cap or leg tie?
