Description: | A copper alloy thimble of fifteenth century date. It has two engraved or turned lines around the rim which measures 18.43mm in diameter. There are two notches 12.4mm apart on the rim which may be the resulted of the manufacturing process. The indentations are circular and run in lines from top to bottom. They continue over the top, which is domed and comes almost to a point. The thimble is 17.86mm in height, weighing 5.12g. A similar example from medieval London is illustrated in Egan 1998, no.830. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Carr, Jane - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
