Copper alloy possible musket fragment. A symmetrical pair of cast copper alloy plates with moulded decorative detail, resembling a leaf or wing in their form, brazed to and linked at their upper ends by a round section open loop, and at their lower ends brazed to and linked by the square section arms of a Y-shaped object with a round section screw threaded shank below it.
