Incomplete cast copper alloy heraldic horse-harness pendant in the shape of a shield.

The recessed areas in bronze would have originally been gold in colour and contrasted with the red enamel and reflected off its glassy surface. The base of the suspension loop survives and tapers to a point where the loop would have been. Without a canton (a square charge which is a diminutive of the Quarter) in the …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worn and incomplete cast copper alloy horse harness pendant, dating to the medieval period. The pendant is quite small and has a lozenge-shaped body with a suspension loop set perpendicular to the body. There is decoration on one side only,. This decoration is hard to discern because of the wear, however it is armorial and appears to consist of a red (gules) background with gilded shapes over. Due to corrosion it is unclear if the shield is divided quarterly or in half. If it is quarterly, which appears probable looking at the pattern of corrosion, and with quarter 3 being red with …

Lead alloy possible medal fragment. An oval plate, or a circular plate with damage, with a bevelled edge around part of its border. A pair of gouges appear on one otherwise plain side, while the other is more irregular, and may indicate the loss of a design, possibly through burning. There is no discernible sign of any text.

Lead shot. Cast belted shot; of spherical form with a medial circumferential D-section 'belt' integrally cast, giving a diameter of 14.5mm at the belt, and 12.2mm for the ball itself. Lightly patinated overall. This was probably intended for a rifled 'rook and rabbit gun' (D.F. Harding 2012, Lead Shot of the English Civil War: a radical study, Foresight Books, London, page 180: post-17th-century rifle balls'), possibly resembling the Brunswick rifle. A nick on the belt is probably a casting flaw, and to judge from a lack of ramming or rifling scars this ball has probably not been fire…
