Description: | Cast copper alloy bead. The bead is circular in plan and hexagonal in section being bi-conical. It is of irregular, thickness with the circular perforation set slightly off centre. No casting seam is visible. The original surface survives with a dark green patina, with areas of wear showing as lighter green. The bead has a diameter of 12.34 mm, is 7.22 mm thick and weighs 3.64g. Beads are difficult to date, but given the patination and condition and related finds in the area, this bead is probably Late Iron Age or Roman in date.
