Description: | A copper-alloy pin of 14th century date.The shaft is 62mm in length and 2.5mm in thickness at the base of the head. The shaft is circular in section and narrows to a point. At the top of the shaft and just below the head is a collar. The head is multifaceted, with four lozenge-shaped primary faces/sides, a flat top face, and eight triangular faces (four above, four below) between each of the primary faces. The four primary faces each have a shallow circular depression with a ring of 2mm diameter in relief.The shaft is bent in two places, so the pin at present forms three sides of a square.
