The curiously shaped rooster is fixed by an axis through the lock plate. At the axis one of the traces of the cock, which connects the cock with the striking spring, is broken off. On the inside of the lock plate is still the remains of the rod and the deposit with which the lock was fired. The rooster belongs to another fragment of the same slot to which a sample is attached.
