Description: | Medieval thimble with very thick (>1.5mm) walls, one notch in rim below an irregularity on the inner surface. Two circumferential grooves near rim, thirty-eight vertical lines of punched dot indentations on lower sides, below eight concentric rings which extend onto the crown. The uppermost ring continues as a spiral that covers the whole dome. The combination of vertically, concentrically and spirally applied indentations is far from common, and the weight (13.04g) is considerable. Diameter 20mm, height 22mm. 14th - 15th century.
