At the base of the object is a central projecting terminal knop, above which is a single central rivet hole containing a copper-alloy rivet with flattened round heads. At the attachment end the strap end has two V-shaped notches and a further central circular rivet hole with separately cast copper-alloy rivet that has flattened round heads.
