Fig. 776. Rondel dagger

English, early XVth century Found in the Clerkenwell Road in 1864 Guildhall Museum

in the brass of Sir William Vernon in Tong Church, Shropshire (Fig. 771). The dagger on this brass bears a remarkable likeness to the example, No. 114, in the Wallace Collection (Fig. 772), which, though partially genuine, and made in the first half of the XVth century, has had its enamelled enrichments added at some subsequent date. Still keeping within the period just mentioned we illustrate four rondel daggers (Figs. 773, 774, 775, and 776)
