Description: | Worn bow, damaged shank, Bow is kidney shaped, showing major wear to the upper side, perhaps through being attached to a chain or ring. The ferrule is pentagonal and attaches to a heavily damaged shank, rolled from sheet metal to form a hollow pipe key. The join has cracked and become very corroded. There is no discernable collar. The pin is pipe ended. The bit is unusual in form and consists of two large clefts to the upper and lower sides. The whole is heavily corroded and has degraded paper stuck to it in various places on the reverse.,
