Description: | Roman Copper alloy dress or hair pin with hexagonal faceted head and incomplete shank.The remaining shank is 31.6mm long, circular in section and 2.5mm in diameter at the widest point; it has a slight curve. The head is polyhedral, a cube with the corners cut off, and plain; it is 6.7mm tall and 6.1mm wide. The entire pin weighs 2.7 grams.Pins of this style could be attributed to the Roman or Early-Medieval periods, but since many Roman finds have been discovered in the same area as the pin, a Roman date is most likely.
