Description: | A squashed copper-alloy post-medieval thimble of thin sheet construction (c. 17th century AD). The shallow dome measures c. 13mm in diameter. The thimble expands towards the base, although the diameter cannot be measured as it has been squashed into a lozengiform shape, possibly as a deliberately destructive act. The thimble is covered in regular circular punches apart from a band above the base. It has corroded to a red-brown colour.
