Description: | A probably Post-Medieval (1500-1700) copper alloy unidentified object, now rather bent, and consisting of a copper alloy strip decorated on one face only. Measures 65.18x12.83x1.91mm and weighs 9.52g.The reverse has some traces of original patina and possible corrosion product but otherwise no signs of fixing. The opposite face is decorated with six panels of grooved decoration of varying widths. Starting at one end: pair of grooves forming a double X; large X formed of double grooves with single groove through centre, joining all sides and two diagonals at one end; very worn and not discernable; three diagonals of two pairs of grooves; diamond-shaped filled with short grooves and further diagonal grooves around; three diagonals of two pairs of grooves.Presumably the object is some kind of mount although there are no obvious signs of fixing and the object is perhaps a little thick.
