Title
Approximately 58 square centimetres of undecorated sheet copper alloy in four fragments. Date unknown.
Description
English: Approximately 58 square centimetres of undecorated sheet copper alloy in four fragments. Date unknown. Thickness 0.56mm. Overall weight 31.65g.

The larger fragment has part of a finished straight edge. About 10mm in from this edge are two complete circular perforations that have a diameter of about 4mm. There is evidence for a third and similar perforation at the edge of the break. The centres of the perforations are about 32mm apart. The second largest fragment has two finished straight edges which form a corner. One of the edges has two similar perforations about 10mm from the edge. All the perforations appear to have been created using a punch as they all have a burr around the periphery of the perforation on one face only. Each fragment has a smooth mid-green patina on each face and the metal of the larger fragment is cracked and crazed.
