Description: | A middle Saxon copper alloy pin with a flattened biconical head (16mm in diameter). The pin is decorated with dot and circle motifs. These have a flat outer circle and a raised inner circular ring. There are five such motifs on separate facets around the upper part of the head and five below, with a single motif on the top of the head. There is a raised collar where the head meets the shaft of the pin. The shaft is circular in section and tapers towards the point. There is a right-angled bend near the end of the shaft due to plough damage. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ghey, Eleanor - British Museum | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
