Description: | Cast copper alloy pin from a Medieval annular buckle or brooch. The pin has a loop at one end running though 280 degrees, below the loop is a slight raised collar on the front fram which the pin tapers gradually. At the tip the underside has a slight notch to fit the frame. The pin appears complete with a dark grey patina and surface corrosion. It is 47.0mm long, 13.3mm wide including the loop, 5.7mm excluding it, 4.8mm thick and weighs 5.84 grams.
The larger, heavy form of the pin and the shaped tip suggests a 14th century date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
