At the centre is a sub-oval perforation or opening. At the rear are two integral tapering spikes, one at each end. These are circular in cross-section.This mount is corroded, particularly at the front making it uncertain whether it was decorated. However, traces of a white metal coating can be seen.Length: 24.4mm; width: 11.8mm; thickness: 2.3mm; thickness including spikes: 5.7mm. Weight: 2.92g.
