Description: | Fragment of Late Medieval-Post Medieval cast lead alloy Pilgrim souvenir 15th-16th century. The object is a circular flattened ring with cast openwork decoration. The circumference is decorated with pierced trefoils, the main ring has openwork quatrefoils and the innermost ring has bifoliate projections. The rings are separated by cast rings of pellets. The reverse of the object is undecorated but has four knops that project up from the back and have domed heads suggesting that they were rivets for attaching the object to a larger artefact. The object has been damaged, one side has been rolled over from back to front and a few of the decorative elements are missing, though it is difficult to tell if they have been lost or are miscast.Weight: 1.48gDiameter: 22.43mm
