Description: | Copper alloy and iron mount. Cast slightly concavo-convex discoid mount with two opposed lugs projecting backwards and retaining the stubs of iron fixing pins. The front bears a radial spiral design in incised relief with a closely spaced series of stamped dots or pellets along each arm of the spiral, and with a small central hollow or pellet. The lugs appear to have been intended to permit the passage of a strap between them. The execution of decoration may hint at manufacture in a craft rather than an industrial setting. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1700-1800.Diameter: 31.6mm, Thickness (clear of lugs): 2.3mm, Weight: 15.39gms.
