Description: | Copper-alloy ball-headed pin of 16th-century date. The head is hollow and has applied filigree decoration forming trefoils of three circles around a central granule within a larger circular border. The top of the pin, opposite the shaft, has a larger granule. The head is divided into two hemispherical zones by means of a border around the centre. No evidence of gilding survives, and the head has holes caused by corrosion. The pin has recently broken beneath the head. The pin shaft is bent. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1500
