Description: | A cast copper-alloy Viking mount of the Early-Medieval period, c. 900-1000.The mount is solid and hemispherical in shape. The domed face bears a worn interlace of Borre-Jellinge style. The reverse is plain but shows the evidence of casting in the form of a flashmark across the diameter. There is also damage in the centre of the reverse, probably related to the loss/removal of the mount from whatever it was attached to.
