Description: | Copper-alloy middle Anglo-Saxon pin. The head is of flattened biconical shape, decorated with ring-and-dot ornament. The pin shaft is both bent and broken. The surviving overall length is 33mm and the surviving length of the pin's shaft is 25mm, its diameter 1.5mm. There is a ridge or collar at the junction of the head with the shaft.The head has twelve ring-and-dot motifs, one of which is central on the summit and the others placed apparently at random: the ring diameter is 2.25mm and the diameter of the head itself is 7mm. This object was found with a strap-fitting with engraved ring-and-dot ornament which may be of the same date, i.e. middle Anglo-Saxon. See SF-DFC8C1.
