Description: | A copper-alloy thimble, dating to the 15th - 16th century. The thimble is short with a rounded top. The indentations in the thimble are circular. The indentations on the sides have been arranged in parallel columns, whilst the indentations on the top are largely worn away. This thimble has been cast as one piece. The thimble does not thicken around the base, but there is an incised ring around the base of the thimble. The metal is a dark brownish-green colour. Parallels can be seen in Egan (2005), p132, fig: 126. Diameter at base : 17.3mm | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
