Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy strap loop belt mount of medieval date, circa 1150 - 1450.The mount has an elongated D-shaped loop with a single collared knop on the top, curved edge. A circular hole is present at the centre of the straight bottom edge representing the point at which an integral attachment rivet would have been used to hold the mount in place on the strap. The sides of the loop have been heavily filed leaving a number of parralel striations perpendicular to the edge of the loop. The loop is a very dark grey colour, suggesting a high tin bronze.Measurements: 24.55mm long, 12.94mm wide, 4.73mm thick and 3.36g in weight.
