Description: | A copper alloy object. It has a shank of rounded profile, 2.25mm thick and 13mm in length. One terminal may be incomplete due to an old break. The opposite terminal flares into a semi-circular shape, 16.47mm wide and domed with a hollow back. The edges show more signs of wear than the domed area. There is further wear on the reverse along the edges, and within the central hollowed area are traces of a dull yellow-coloured coating. The object measures 26.19mm in surviving length and weighs 3.13g. It is possible that the object represents a terminal perhaps from a handle, or may have been used as a mount with the coating on the reverse being some kind of solder. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Carr, Jane - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
