Description: | Part of a copper alloy purse bar which is post-medieval in date. The bar is straight and is circular in section. It is decorated by faint incised circumferential lines across the whole length of the bar. Both ends are broken. Two circular loops project from the bar and there are the remains of a third loop where the bar is broken. The frame is 77.40mm long, 5.83mm wide and 6.03mm thick and weighs 13.95gms. The metal is in good condition. Part of a similar frame, though with slightly different loops, can be seen in Egan (2005) on page 62. It has been dated from AD 1500 to 1700.
