Title
Early-medieval unidentified object
Description
English: Unidentified copper-alloy object with corroded iron core. The copper-alloy part consists of a hollow ?terminal with one rounded end, probably with a small perforation, and one straight-cut open end. The terminal has a narrow raised band running around the centre; above and below this are rings of alternately set triangular perforations, each perforation with its base towards the raised band. An iron core has blocked all the perforations with corrosion, and has in some places burst the copper alloy. The copper alloy is also very corroded - to a dark purple colour - but looks always to have been of rather crude manufacture. It has a Late Anglo-Saxon or Anglo-Scandinavian feel to it, but parallels are still being sought.
