Description: | Fragment of copper alloy purse bar and frame. Ward Perkins (1993) type B1 with short bars (51mm end-to-end) and missing suspension loop. A length of bag frame arm remains attached to the end of one bar whilst the other has just the loop extant. The surviving arm has two transverse grooves on its upper side and a double projection on its underside which are the remains of a bag attachment loop. One side of the central boss has a large casting defect exposing the spindle of the missing suspension loop, whilst the opposite face has the faint remnant of a downward pointing chevron decoration. All surving components have some remains of whitemetal coating. Late 15th early 16th century AD.
