The outer edges are defined by U-shaped notches to create twelve knops defined by diagonal grooves. Through the centre of the plate is a separate copper-alloy rivet with a flattened globular head with four evenly spaced circular grooves surrounding it. Attached to the rivet is a separate copper-alloy rove, which is flat and circular. There are traces of gilding on the front face.This mount measures 11.77mm in length, 11.18mm in width, 1.70mm in thickness, 1.35g in weight.There is a similar example recorded on the PAS database (LIN-F6EE11).
