Description: | A Medieval to Post-medieval cast copper-alloy object, possibly a sword or dagger pommel (c. 1450-c. 1700). It is circular in plan and roughly oval in cross-section. At the centre is a square perforation which is filled with iron. This iron protrudes on the reverse and is probably the tang. Seventeen evenly spaced rounded projections with grooves between them radiate from the centre. The pommel measures 31.3mm diameter, 18.91mm thick, and weighs 53g. The surfaces are mainly covered in light green/brown matte patina.Similar objects are recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database. See finds: NMS-933617 and SF-2CE1D5.
