Description: | Copper alloy. Possible Clasp (cf Read 2008 Early Post-Medieval Class A, pages 164-182). Cast slightly concavo-convex plate with a possibly anthropomorphic design of paired bosses (possibly eyes) with relief ridges between them (possibly nose or mouth). A pair of opposed curling lugs may represent very worn provision for attachment through the holes they enclose. A short knop projects from one end of the plate between the curled lugs; the other end of the plate is apparently lost. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1550-1650.Length: 28.4mm, Width: 29.3mm, Thickness: c.2.4mm, Weight: 5.10gms.
