Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy Roman lock pin. Only the head of this lock pin and a fragment of its shaft survive, the rest is missing due to an old break. The head is spindle shaped with the upper face sunk around a high central cone. It is circular in plan and measures 25.6mm in diameter at its upper half and 22.2mm in diameter at its lower half. It is 17.5mm in height. The head is decorated with circmferencial grooves. On the underside of the head there is a fragment of the missing shaft. This fragment is rectangular in shape, measuring 12mm in width, 8mm in thickness and 3mm in surviving length. A similar, although complete lock pin was found in Colchester (Crummy 1983, 125, fig 137, no 4143).
