Description: | An early medieval decorative pinhead, probably of copper-alloy. The pinhead is of rough spheroidal shape, though one edge is faceted, and apparently open. The crest of the pinhead is decorated with rough longitudinal striations. The pin is broken just below the head, so it is not possible to discern whether its also had a collar. The pin probably dates to the Middle Saxon period (c. AD 700-900)
