Description: | Fragment of a copper alloy Roman pin. The remains of the pinhead show a conical point with a tiny globular knop, with a deep groove beneath. The shaft is circular in section. It is broken along its length with a horizontal break. The pin is worn but much of the original surface survives with a mid green patina with patches of lighter green. Break edges are worn, suggesting damage occurred in antiquity. The pin has an overall length of 32.68mm, is 1.86mm in diameter and weighs 0.39g. Crummy, 1983, illustrates a similar pin in figure 31, under 'miscellaneous'.
