Description: | Small, worn cast copper-alloy nail or upholstery tack. The head is roughly circular, 13.0mm in diameter. The slightly off-centre shaft is 5.3mm by 4.8mm rectangular in cross-section at the top and tapers to a point. It is now curved. On the upper face of the artefact is a raised 'V' symbol. Copper-alloy nails and upholstery tacks are difficult to date (the main two periods of use being Roman and late post-medieval). | 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: | 50
