Description: | An Early Saxon copper alloy girdle hanger. It is rectangular sectioned, with a concave lower edge and slightly concave sides. The wards are plain with rectangular ends and the shank is broken just above the ends of the wards. One face is decorated with a lightly engraved line and multiple stamped annulets following the edges of the terminal. The width of the terminal is 38mm. The width of the shank at the break is 8mm. The surviving length is 30mm and the thickness is 3mm. It may be ascribed to Felder's Type A2f (unpublished thesis, 2002) and dates from the late 5th - 6th century.
