Description: | Roman copper alloy pin head, 19mm long, 10mm wide and 8mm thick. The object weighs 4 grams and has a dark brown patina. The head is oval in section and terminates with a flat disc with a slight protrusion in its centre. Below this the object is pinched in before widening into a large knop. Below this it is pinched in again before forming two protruding ribs. From here the object tapers inwards to a point. It is difficult to say whether the protrusion at the 'flat' end was the pin shaft or whether the tapering end was.
