Title: help for this Post by: wagis on March 04, 2018, 05:05:51 PM Anyone any ideas on this I found 2 weeks ago, been told it could be a shield boss or a saddle ornament. It definitely has a face on it, is about 2 inches across and raised about half an inch in the middle. the face looks religious. on the back it looks like either 1655, 1635,n655,n635 or a655, a635. so could be a date or not. but the whole pattern has a few differences on it.

For comparison have a look on eBay item no. 401325979996. Or search for Medieval Saint George and Dragon Bridle Boss A mere £120 if your interested. Title: Re: help for this Post by: wagis on March 05, 2018, 10:04:39 AM Thanks for that Val much appreciated will have a look later
