Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete copper alloy stirrup strap mount. Williams Class A, Type 15. The original surface is badly worn by cleaning. At one end of the rectangular plate is a step or remains of a hinge at 90 degrees to the plate. Adjacent to this on the plate is a single rivet hole. At the other end, approximately one third of the plate is decorated with lines in a scroll formation, and the rounded appears to follow this decoration. However, due to the over-cleaning it is not possible to establish if this is a broken edge, or the complete item.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A probably early post-medieval (1500-1650) uniface lead alloy circular token with the initials AB divided by a crozier (the end curling right). Above the A (and to the left of the head of the crozier) is the letter O. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally. They are difficult to date precisely, although those with initials are generally thought to be post-medieval in date (c.1500-1850). Rob Webley comments of this token, 'The form of the A reminds me of that on the Augsburg cloth seals, so a foreign source may be a possibility' (pers. comm. June 2018). Augsburg …

An early post-medieval Venetian silver soldino of probably Doge Andrea Gritti (1523-1538). The silver soldino of Venice was known as the galyhalpens (galley-halfpence) as it was brought by the annual Venetian trading fleets. The soldino was about the size of English halfpennies and was popular because of a contemporary lack of small change; soldini in fact occur as English finds more often than proper halfpennies of the period.
