Description: | Cast head of a lead alloy dress pin, probably of 16th or 17th century date. The pinhead stylistically resembles the silver gilt dress-pins, but is made in a cheaper metal. The pinhead is made up of two zones divided by a single band. The decoration consists of the granules within a larger circular border. The remains of the iron pin shaft is visible at the base of the head. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
