Description: | A complete copper alloy Medieval sheet plate with bar mount. Its shape is a crude imitation of the shield-shaped mounts illustrated by Egan and Pritchard (1991, 157, fig.103, no.732-42) - simply squared at one end and pointed at the other. On the outer face at the squared end a curved strip of metal is secured with an in situ copper alloy rivet. A further copper alloy rivet also remains in situ at the pointed end. To the reverse each of these rivets is secured with a square copper alloy rove. Egan and Pritchard (ibid., 157-8) suggest that the type has so far only been found in late 14th century contexts.Length: 11.84mm, width: 9.63mm, thickness: 4.59mm, weight: 0.96g | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
