Description: | A fragment of a copper alloy Anglo-Saxon pin, consisting of the head and a small part of the shaft. The head is a flattened disc, slightly sub-circular and ca 14-15mm in diameter. It is 3mm thick, but is uneven, one side being 3mm and the other 2mm. One face is plain, the other decorated with an apparently random arrangement of 10 ring and dot stamps. The dots are ca 1.5mm in diameter, the rings ca 3mm. The top of the shaft is slightly flattened, but the main body if the shaft is circular in section and 2.3mm in diameter. There is approximately 14mm of the shaft remaining. The break is stepped and probably old as there is corrosion on it. There are patches of corrosion elsewhere. | 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: | 500
