A copper alloy probable mount formed from a sheet of copper alloy. The plate is triangular with a rectangular piece of metal projecting from one corner of the shorter edge of the plate. The rectangular piece seems to have broken across a circular rivet hole, but all its edges seem to be breaks. The rest of the short edge of the triangle also appear to be a break. The plate is decorated with a plain incised border line round the triangular area. The metal has a smooth green patina, with some orange (ferrous, but not magnetic) corrosion on the reverse.
