Description: | Copper alloy thimble probably dating to the 17th to 18th centuries. The thimble is 17.0mm tall and has been flatterned making the original base diameter hard to establish; the top is 13.1mm in diameter and it weighs 2.4 grams. The rim is thin and straight with a raised but not thicken band. Above this is a blank area 1.7mm wide. Above this are, unusually raised pimples rather than indentations, possibly due to a manufacturing error, the pimples are worn in some areas but appear to be in regular rows. The top is a low dome and covered with large round indentations arranged in squares.
