Description: | Cast cu-alloy biconical-headed dress pin dating from either Roman or early medieval period, i.e. AD43-1066. The pin is incomplete with just the sturdy head remaining, but most of the pin missing. The pin has a very small diameter and would have broken off easily. The head, however, is complete and still in good condition. It is undecorated and shows flattened edges and there is a small collar between the head and the pin. Similar examples have been excavated at Meols (on the Wirral), see ref. below. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
