There is one integral pointed lug on the back of the trefoil terminal and the other broken missing end would also have had another pointed lug. The extant lug is quite long at 10mm.

Cast copper alloy mount, possibly a sword belt mount dating from the post-medieval period, that is c. AD1500-1700. The mount is oval or egg-shaped with two attachment loops at the top (one of which is now missing) and a larger, now broken, loop between. There was another loop at the other end, but this is now missing. All surfaces are extremely worn,especially around the edges, but it looks as if the mount was decorated with vertical mouldings and a floral or fleur-de-lys pattern on the obverse.

Very worn cast copper alloy mount, possibly a book or box mount dating from the post-medieval or early modern period, that is c. AD1500-1800. The mount is composed of a long narrow strip with wavy edges, terminating in a large flat, circular disc. There is one thick moulding in the centre of the mount. Both surfaces are extremely worn and no further decoration is visible. On the reverse are three attachment lug which are all bent over. This suggests that the mount was attached to a thin sheet of wood or, more likely, a leather cover or leather strap.
