The wider end is in-curved with a V-shaped groove. Arranged vertically are two rivets holes (counter-sunk to the reverse), the one nearest the wider end retaining an iron rivet. All original patina has been lost and reverse is slightly concave. It is likely this object functioned as part of a sword belt assemblage
