Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy pin. Such artefacts are extremely difficult to date without contextual information; however, the presence of gilding suggests that a date of early-medieval to medieval is most likely.The head of the pin is flattened bi-conical. The integral shaft is of tapering circular section and is broken at the bottom. The surfaces of the heavily corroded object retain traces of gilding. The object measures 8.1mm long, 5.4mm wide (diameter of the head) and weighs 0.69g.
