Description: | The object is possibly a cast copper alloy bead. There is no decoration which may help with the dating, hence the dating is wide, from the Roman period through to the Medieval period.
On plan the bead is circular, and in profile it is a crescentic shape. The interior hole edges are both slightly abraded and are approximately 7.8mm in diameter.
The surface of the bead has a slight green/brown coloured patina. It weighs 2.56g and measures 14.5mm in diameter and 7.7mm thick. | 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: | 43
