Description: | An incomplete copper alloy thimble consisting of approximately 50% of the body of the thimble and the crown. The surviving object is worn and distorted. The crown is flat. The indentations are fairly large and circular, and are arranged in rows. They are of irregular depth and appear to have been done by hand. The rim is the same thickness as the body of the thimble. The metal surface has a patchy mid greyish green patina. All the breaks are worn. This thimble dates to the 16th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
