Medieval Mount/Terminal Thingy?

[stanslad]

Hi All
Got this back from FLO a while ago & just found it again while going through stuff looking at coins for coin competition, I must be more tidy! copper alloy with traces of gilding, swirling lines end with little snakes heads, nostrills filled with paste or stones, 2 small fixing rivets to base.
regards,
Clint

Anni said a lot, 1200 or possibly earlier stirrup terminal as fixing end hole simular etc
have a look at PAS site Number/code BERK-C64656

Cheers for that clint, what an interesting thing, cool as, mate, cool as, i think that would be quite a valuable piece there, never seen anything quite like it, looks partly Celtic in style. I like it a lot mate
