<p>[QUOTE=&quot;say_it_slowly, post: 344458, member: 50&quot;]Have you tried looking through this database? I tried just looking at copper alloy mounts but there are many possibilities.&nbsp; Hopefully some of the UK boardies will have some ideas.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/search/results/broadperiod/POST+MEDIEVAL/createdBy/813/objectType/MOUNT/materialTerm/Copper+alloy/page/1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://finds.org.uk/database/search/results/broadperiod/POST+MEDIEVAL/createdBy/813/objectType/MOUNT/materialTerm/Copper+alloy/page/1" rel="nofollow">https://finds.org.uk/database/search/results/broadperiod/POST+MEDIEVAL/createdBy/813/objectType/MOUNT/materialTerm/Copper+alloy/page/1</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Record ID: <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/467331" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/467331" rel="nofollow">BERK-D96C41</a></p><p>Object type: MOUNT</p><p>Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL</p><p>County: Oxfordshire</p><p>Workflow stage: Awaiting validation </p><p>A cast copper alloy late medieval / early post-medieval belt or strap mount. The mount is cruciform in plan with large rounded terminals to each arm. There is a raised linear moulding running both across the width and up and down the length of the joining arms of the cross, seperating the mount into quartered panels. Each of these panels contains moulded scroll designs but unfortunately these are too worn to make out any further detail.
