Description: | An unidentified copper alloy object probably dating to the Medieval period, circa 1200-1500 AD. The object has been cut from a copper alloy sheet. In plan, the object has a trefoil terminus leading to a rectangular lug with a broken end. The object has an irregualar section. Within the trefoil terminus survives 4 evenly spaced circular perforations which have been punched. The holes have an internal diameter of approximately 7.1mm. The position of the perforations and the lack of wear suggest they are only decorative. The sides of the object begin to taper away from the terminus and end in an old break. The object has an uneven brown / green patina.Length: 44.53mm. Width: 33.88mm. Thickness: 1.97mm. Weight: 9.4g.
