Description: | A cast copper-alloy belt mount or stud of Post-Medieval date. It has a bilobate plate that is D-shaped in section with flat back face and rounded front face. At each end of the plate are small projecting semi-circular knops. The front face is decorated with a series of incised grooves that radiate from the top-centre of the plate and there are traces of gilding. On the back face of the mount are two integrally cast copper-alloy lugs, one of which is incomplete due to old breaks. These are flat, rectangular in form, the complete example folded mid-way along its length to an angle of ninety degrees. The entire object measures 27.14mm in length, 9.84mm in width, 3.44mm in thickness, 16.84mm in height, and weighs 5.18g. This is a cast copper-alloy belt mount or stud of Post-Medieval date, probably c.16th to 17th century AD in date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
