Description: | Unidentified object made from cast copper alloy. The main component is a bar, D-shaped in cross-section, bent round to form half an oval. At one end there is a transverse ridge with roughened surface, perhaps a broken projection, and then beyond this the bar is flattened on the outside as if to sit on a flat surface. At the other end, also on the outside of the oval, there is a pointed projection with pointed-oval cross-section. The flattened edge and the projection are not at right angles to each other, but the broken projection and the existing one may have originally been in line. Apart from the broken projection there are no other obviously broken edges. There is no dating evidence, and in fact this object may be modern, but it seems so potentially recognisable that it may be worth recording. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
