Cast copper alloy shield shaped mount. The face has the heraldic arms of a lion rampant, the surface is corroded and worn which has removed any surface inlay such as enamelling, gilding or white metal coating that could have been applied. The reverse has a single large (20mm long) rearward projecting stud that narrows to a fine point. Similar items are described as harness mounts and used to decorated hoarse leatherwork such as GLO-BB7345 or LANCUM-EDA01D. However, the size of the stud precludes this use and instead may have been mounted to a wooden item.
