Weight 3.13g.The oval hoop (6mm in width) is convex at the front and concave at the rear and has a constriction for pin. Either side of the constriction are two decorative transverse grooves. A very small bar is sub rectangular in cross-section. The tapering silver sheet pin has six decorative transverse grooves situated at the loop end of the pin shaft.
