Description: | Early medieval copper alloy girdle hanger, 54mm in length, 6mm wide and 2mm thick with a weight of 5.51grams. The object is rectangular in form and cross section and represents just over half a complete hanger. It consists of an integral circular suspension loop which sits at the top of a decorated shaft. This consists of a rectangular shaped, semi-circular cross sectioned projection with a central incised band. Below this the shaft has a further two slightly projecting rectangular sections separated by plain flat areas. Below this the object is flat and begins to widen out and its lower half has snapped off cleanly. For a similar object see NMS-BF0AF7.
