Description: | Unidentified and undated fragment of silver, gilded object. Curved, concave on both wide faces, narrowing slightly from one end towards the other, the outer edge knurled (multiple closely spaced transverse ribs) between narrow raised borders at either edge, the inner edge slightly convex and plain. Broken at both ends, one break extending around to the inner edge slightly leaving the possibility that there was an internal projection. Thickness 3mm. Width 7 - 9.5mm. Weight 2.5g. Surviving length 22mm. If the outside edge continues to form a circle the original diameter would be circa 32mm. Curators at the British Museum think it is probably later post-medieval or modern and does not therefore qualify as potential treasure.
