A shield-shaped copper-alloy mount, probably medieval in date. The mount is flat and has a worn surface which masks what appears to be a diagonal pair of lines running from the top left to the midde right. Traces of red enamel remain in some of the recessed fields. An incomplete integral shank of circular-section remains on the reverse.<p class="mw-empty-elt"></p>
<p>This object is comparable to SUR-967CF7 which was probably used as a decorative item assocated with a stirrup. This  function is also likely for the present item.</p>
