Description: | A pressed copper-alloy mount, dating from the Late Medieval period.The centre of the mount is marked by a raised ring with central perforation for the now-missing rivet. This ring is located at the centre of a lozenge-shaped field. A ring protrudes from the mid-point of each of the four sides.Length: 14.1mm; width: 14.1mm; height/thickness: 1.8mm. Weight: 0.59g.A large number of pressed sheet-metal mounts were found in excavations in London, the closest parallel for this example being no. 940, which came from a mid to late 14th century context (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 185/186).
