Description: | Copper alloy nail or stud. The nail has a flat, sub-circular head and tapers from quite a wide top to a point at the tip. The nail appears to be formed from a sheet of copper alloy which has been rolled into the elongated cone shape of the shaft. The nail measures 45.76mm in length and 12.05mm in diameter across the head. It weighs 6.16g. A similar example of a stud made in the same way can be seen in: ??Craft, Industry and Everyday Life: Finds from Medieval York?? by Ottaway and Rogers p2829 No.15160. This example is made from lead. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
