The front is slightly convex and moulded into the shape of a central face surrounded by openwork foliate and floral decoration. The details of which are now very worn and unclear. The edges of the munt are shaped to the design. The back is flat. Only the stubs of the circular sectioned attachments survive. There is extensive remains of gilding on the front. It is 30.4mm long by 26.4mm wide and 3.5mm thick excluding the rivets, 4.9mm including. It weighs 8.36 grams.Read (2001) illustrates a similarly worn example (p.35 no 303) which he dates to 1600 to 1700 AD. There are also many similar examples on the database such as SWYOR-631324, LIN-78E708 and DOR-0B1977.
