Description: | A copper alloy domed disc strap mount dating from the Post-Medieval or early Modern period AD1600-1800. It has a central, flat circular stud but is not stepped in profile. It is decorated with concentric circles, which still bear traces of gilding. The reverse is concave and has two integral spikes (one on either side) that have been been broken off but would have been bent over to grip the leather to which the mount was attached. The mount has a dark green patina. Similar mounts are illustrated in Bailey, G, 1995.
