Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A circular gilded copper-alloy mount dating to the early-medieval period, perhaps the 8th or 9th centuries. Gilding survives on the front and on the edge; the flat reverse is ungilded. There is no obvious means of fixing or attachment. The design of the mount is based on a (missing) central setting with three bosses around which are tight, fine-line 'watch-spring' spirals. In between the bosses the spirals expand from lines to flaring chip-carved trumpets; the chip-carving is very bold. Where two flared ends meet there is a possible transverse ridge (the photo is unclear) which is …

Object type: STRAP END
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Tongue-shaped sheet copper alloy object with a single rivet hole at the straight end and a repoussé median rib which is decorated with seven transverse engraved grooves, two pairs and one triplet. No parallel has been noted but the single rivet and the use of sheet suggests that the object may perhaps be one half of an Early Saxon strap end which would have been attached by solder to its counterpart at the rounded outside edge (cf. MacGregor and Bolick 1993, Cat. nos. 35.3 and 35.5-7). Length 27.6mm. Width 15.2mm. Thickness away from rib 0.3mm, at rib 0.9mm. c.480 - c.550 AD.

Object type: COIN HOARD
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published
Two silver denarii, both in relatively crisp condition. Apart from siliquae from the second half of the 4th century and nummi from the 330s onwards, no other Roman coins have so far been found in this field. This fact, combined with the closeness of these two coins to one another in date and condistion, makes it very likely that they went into the ground together, either as part of a purse loss or a larger, concealed hoard. The two coins are: 1. Silver denarius of Elagabalus, Rome, reverse P M TR P IIII COS III P P, Sol advancing left with whip, star in left field, RIC IV.2, 40, we…
