Description: | A sheet copper-alloy chape of probable Post-Medieval date. It is triangular in form, folded from a single sheet to produce a hollow, oval attachment end and rounded terminal end. On the back face the attachment end has two cicular rivet holes, with an addition circular rivet hole visible at the centre of the front face. Traces of possible leather or wood are visible within the attachment end but their precise form is uncertain due to the preservation of the object. It measures 22.87mm in length, 7.93mm in width, 4.89mm in thickness and 1.38g in weight.This is a sheet copper-alloy chape similar to examples recorded through the PAS (e.g. YORYM-DDE0A7). It is of probable Post-Medieval date, c.16th-17th centuries AD if not slightly earlier or later. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
