Description
English: A Medieval to Post-Medieval cast copper-alloy mount in the form of an acorn. The design on the obverse is moulded and the cup is decorated with a raised line, below which are raised circular marks; above the cup are three raised irregularly spaced lines. The reverse features two rivets. The mount is greenish-brown in colour. Similar reference mounts can be found in Read, B., 2001. Metal Artefacts of Antiquity.
