Description: | A copper-alloy hooked mount of post-Medieval date.The top side of the plate is horizontal and has a deep 'V-shaped' depression at its centre. The long sides converge towards the bottom, where there is a wider collar with incised transverse groove. The integrally cast hook is of semi-circular section, backward-pointing and terminates in a blunt end. There are the remains of two iron rivets within the plate. The mount measures 40.8mm long, 13.7mm wide and 9.8mm deep (including hook). The weight is 3.7g.This hooked mount is probably a sword-belt fitting. The suggested date is 17th century.
