Copper alloy mount. Cast heart-shaped lightly concavo-convex plate with a central vertically incised line on it display side and a short [1.8mm] lug on the back. One lobe of the heart is lost, perhaps due to mis-casting rather than damage. The overall form and an integral attachment spike would usually suggest a post-medieval date, but the lug here may be complete. The condition might also permit an earlier date; Roman military equipment included various heart-shaped mounts and pendants.

A copper-alloy mount in the form of a lion couchant modelled in relief on the front face but flat on the rear face. The front face has a slightly melted appearance as though a blob of metal has been dropped on it, with consquent loss of some decorative detail.

Copper alloy mount. Cast discoid concavo-convex plate with an integrally cast bar-shaped object with a narrowed pointed end across its top. A pointed end and criss-cross lines on its surface might hint at the bar being a fasces [a bound bundle of rods and axe, representing the judicial powers of the Roman Senate]. A pierced hole of diameter 1.5mm passes through the meeting of disc and bar. The convex display face of the disc has a finely billeted edge in a clockwise radiating spiral, perhaps evoking a wreath, with a textured rectangular object standing proud of this setting. The centra…
