Medieval mount?

[steve_rowlands]

Thinking this may have been a shield shaped mount that adorned some piece of leather back in the day?

Not sure on the age or what it is though tbh....thoughts chaps?

Not a great find for sure but I like to know what things are before I file them.

Its the top section of a 16th C sword belt fitment. Helped suspend the scabbard from the belt.

Similar to the above which is just missing the hook they help hang the scabbard. Normally a row of 3 hooks going into 3 loops.
