Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy pin with a broken head. The head is swollen by comparison with the shaft and is flatter. It steps down into the shaft which is of circular section. As it survives, the head is 3.7mm in length and 4.0mm wide; the shaft is 2.1mm in diameter at the top. The pin is bent and has evidence of tinning, especially on the upper half. It defies classification in its incomplete state but is tentatively dated as Roman as a number of Roman pins have been found in the vicinity. Surviving length 94.3mm, weight 1.4g | 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
