Description: | A cast copper alloy fitting, possibly a pin. The shank of the pin is square in section and tapers to a blunt point. A series of notches have been cut into the edges of the shank, which may have had the function of anchoring the pin into wood.
At the widest end the shank expands to an oval loop. The pin measures 35.6mm in length. The object is worn and slightly pitted, with a mid reddish-brown patina. It is medieval to post medieval in date.
