Description: | A small bead, which is probably prehistoric in date. The bead is almost circular though crudely made. At its widest diameter it measures 16.87mm. The bead is 15.19mm in width and 10.05mm thick. There is a hole through the centre of the bead, which measures 8.67mm. The exterior of the bead has been decorated with spiralling grooves and ridges, almost like rifling marks. The grooves are quite deep. The metal has a smooth dark brownish-green patina, which has a highly polished appearance. The smoothness of the surface is only spoilt by some loss of surface.
