Silver probable vessel mount. Cast plate with, described from the top, a sharply angled hook, now broken and perhaps originally engaging the rim of a vessel; a collar with seven vertically incised notches; an elongated concavo-convex plate with a vegetal scroll enclosing a field of tiny overlapping circular punch marks on the display face, hollowed behind, above a tapered flat-backed leg with a collared moulded and knopped foot or terminal. The object is curved in profile, a probably original feature perhaps exaggerated by subsequent bending.Suggested date: Possibly Roman, 40-400. In view of the material and possible date this object is to be submitted to the Treasure process, reference 2013T4.
