Description: | An incomplete unidentifiedcopper alloy object of post-medievaldate (AD1500-1800). The object is semi-circular in shape and curves slightly so that it is concave. The decoration consists of three triangles radiating from a central point, with a pellet each side of the central triangle, and a line that runs around the perimeter of the object close to the edge. The reverse is blank. There is a dark brown patina on the surface and the object is a little worn, especially around the edges. There is a worn break on the left hand side where the curved edge meets the straight edge. The length is 17.41mm, the width is 10.71mm, the thickness is 1.39mm and the weight is 1.38g.It has been suggested that this is part of a crotal bell, but due to its small size, and the only slight curve to its shape, this seems unlikely.
