Description: | A slightly corroded and bent cast copper-alloy post-medieval multifoilate mount . The fleuret on the upper surface has nine, stamped petals, each defined by a ridged outline and emerging from a raised central pellet. There is a smaller pellet at the end of the each petal. Central on the lower surface is a central integral stud of square cross-section, now truncated. A very similar mount, but with a double prong attachment, can be found illustrated in Read (2001, 33; ref. 270). There is some cracking to the end of one of the petals. The mount has corroded to a red-brown colour with a covering of dark corrosion product.
