Description: | A cast copper-alloy mount or stud of uncertain date, perhaps Medieval (AD 1200 - 1500). It is circular and domed, with a projecting domed centre which steps forwards form the rest of the domed face. The reverse is flat and there is a central integral rivet, now barely longer than the back of the mount. The object is solid. There appears to be a cross like design on the front face, but on closer inspection this is probably just chance, caused by the surface layer of metal flaking off irregularly. The edge is chipped. The mount or stud is 12.2mm diameter, 5.7mm thick and 1.77g.
