Description: | A fragment from a cast copper-alloy Roman 'pin', measuring 19.7mm in length. It includes the globular head, measuring 11.1mm in thickness and 13.4mm in diameter, and the beginnings of the shaft. The latter is extant over 8.0mm lengthwise; it is 5.1mm in diameter just below the head and tapers slightly before the break. The object is worn and undecorated with no apparent collar below the head. 'Pins' of similar dimensions have been discovered at Colchester and have been identified as Roman furniture nails (Geake 2001, 39).
