The plate of the tag is an elongated triangle, with two perforations at the wider end for attachment, whose areas are circumscribed by an incised line. A continuous incised line also runs around the perimeter of the field: at the side of the tag the spaces have been filled with a simple decoration of incised lines, forming a ladder-like pattern, whilst the area at the top is left plain. From the narrow end of the tag, reinforced by an animal mask, departs the long tapering hook.
