Description: | A copper alloy pin from a medieval brooch or a buckle. The pin is 46mm long, 5.4mm wide and 7.9mm thick. It is made from a thick piece of metal sheet cut into a strip and bent round at one end to form a loop attaching it to the buckle or pin. It tapers towards the point and is slightly bent. The pin is solid, in good condition and has a mid green patina. Its size suggests that it is probably from a buckle. It is not decorated. Similar pins can be seen on page 75 of "Dress Accessories" by Egan and Pritchard (1991).
