Description: | A copper alloy Crucifix dating from the Late Medieval or Early Post Medieval period, about AD 1400 - 1550. The crucifix is cast from copper alloy and has a light green patina with patches of brown. One of the arms has been broken off and the top of the crucifix is missing. The figure of Jesus is shown with His head and knees bend to the left (His right). There are traces of a rectangular plaque integrally cast above His head. The reverse is plain and flat but it is possible that the remains of a pin/stud appear at the top to allow for attachment. The crucifix is 43.11mm in length, 21.23mm wide, 4.65 in thickness and weighs 6.67grams. Compare NMS-8E01D7.
