Description: | Copper alloy mount. Cast rectangular plate with an integrally cast attachment pin and two loops (one lost) projecting. Part of the plate is also probably lost. The finder kindly suggests a 13th to 14th-century date, and indeed this object might be apt to the suspension of more complex forms of harness pendant such as are dated to the later 12th to early 13th century. However, those pendent mounts from London reported by Egan and Pritchard (1991) usually bear separate rivets and mounts with integrally cast rivets are more usually ascribed to the early post-medieval period. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1600.Height: 19.5mm, Width: 16.4mm, Thickness (clear of lug and loops): 1.2mm, Weight: 2.15gms.
