Description: A silver ingot of uncertain date. The ingot is sub rectangular is shape and in cross section. Dimensions: The ingot is 15.94mm in length, 7.40mm in width, 4.22mm in thickness and 3.11g in weight. Discussion and Date: While the ingot is consistent with a Viking period ingot it cannot be securely dated due to the lack of text marks. It is therefore undiagnostic in date, although it is likely to be more than 300 years old. This object contains more than 10% precious metal and is over 300 years old. Consequently, in terms of age and precious metal conte…

A medieval copper alloy harness pendant with an offset suspension loop. The pendant is a Type 5 with open work, with a cross which has bifurcated ends. The pendant has a complete and offset suspension loop. The open work of the cross is not adjacent to the suspension loop. The pendant appears to be plain and not gilded or tinned. Nick Griffiths (1986) comments that poorer quality manufacturing of pendants (including heraldic types) suggests that they were not made for dispay on horses for the nobility. It is more likely they were used by trappings, for the horses of retainers, bail…
