Description: | Part of a copper alloy purse bar from the late 15th to early 16th centuries. It has a central 'D'-shaped block from which horizontal circular-sectioned shoulders project to each side. Projecting from these shoulders are circular sectioned bars, probably once terminating in knops which are now lost to very old and worn breaks. The central block has a circular hole running vertically through which a vertical bar would have passed. It measures 47.7mm long and 14.6mm tall, 9.6mm thick at the central section and 4.3mm at the bar. It weighs 17.99g. It is a Ward Perkins (1940, pg. 167, fig. 52) Type B1.
