Description: | A gilt copper-alloy rectangular belt or strap mount of Medieval date. The mount is rectangular, flat and has a riveted hole at both ends. The face is inscribed with a black-letter 'S', set within a punched triangular border. The background is filled with incised rocker decoration. An iron rivet remains at both ends. The mount is paralleled by NMS-944357, IOW-F7BB27, WMID-537FA8 and SF-E09E63.Another example is noted from Medieval London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 1050). This suggests a 14th century AD date of c.1350-1400 for the current example.
