Description: | A worn, plain copper-alloy sheet rivet which would have been used to hold repairs to a vessel in place. The object is sub-rectangular in form, having originally been hexagonal. It has been folded in on itself from the sides before being folded back. The object is particularly corroded on one face with a blackish hue compared to a dark green patina on the smaller folds. Corroded iron remains in one of the folds suggests at the composition of the vessel this was used to repair. Similar examples found in Norwich tend to be found in post-medieval contexts (Margeson 1993, 92-93; refs. 574, 575).
