Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy strap slide of post-medieval date. The main body of the slide is oval in plan and has a D-shaped section, with a concave reverse and a rounded front giving the object its domed appearance. The front of the fitting has a rounded terminal at each end. There are traces of silvering. A rectangular strap loop projects from the reverse; this is broken with the long side missing. Both breaks are worn. The metal has a mid brownish-green patina and is very worn. Strap slides of this type date from 1500 - 1700. Compare YORYM-9776C6.
