Description: | A cast copper alloy pin, probably dating to the middle Anglo-Saxon period (AD 720 ?? 850). The pin has a flattened biconical head (globular), tapering underneath to a narrow pin shaft. The shaft measures 4.55mm in width tapering to 1.68mm. The shaft is bent but survives to a length of 102mm (measured un-bent). The pin head and the shaft are both undecorated. The metal is a mid brownish-green colour and the original patina survives as a smooth, glossy surface ?? but it is also quite pitted. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
