Description: | A Medieval copper alloy shield-shaped harness mount, dating AD1150-1450. The object is in the shape of a square-toped shield. There is an integral rivet on the back and traces of a casting seam running down the centre on both sides of the object. The object has a dark green patina on the reverse and a mid-light green patina on the front. The object is so worn the heraldic design is no longer visible on the front, though it appears it would have been quartered Similar mounts of this shape can be found on the PAS database, cf. LEIC-E2775B and most date between AD1150-1450. Dimensions: length: 27.36 mm; width: 18.95 mm; thickness: 8.13 mm; weight: 6.13g.
