Description: | Roman copper alloy pin head, 19mm long, 10mm wide and 8mm thick. The object weighs 4 grams and has a dark brown patina. The head is oval in section and terminates with a flat disc with a slight protrusion in its centre. Below this the object is pinched in before widening into a large knop. Below this it is pinched in again before forming two protruding ribs. From here the object tapers inwards to a point. It is difficult to say whether the protrusion at the 'flat' end was the pin shaft or whether the tapering end was. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Wendy Scott | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
