English: A fragment of medieval copper-alloy strip mount, probably from a box or casket, with a stylised relief animal head at one end and an incomplete attachment hole at the other.

Beverly Nenk of the British Museum writes: 'A fragment of a medieval silver terminal or mount, or possibly a pendant cross. Of D-shaped section, with raised decoration at one end. Broken off at the other end, possibly at the site of a pierced hole.'
