Description: | Unidentified cast copper alloy object of an unknown date. This hollow half cylindrical object has a pin attached to the reverse on one end. The pin appears to be bent from its original position, and would have originally projected from the half cylinder on a lug, rather than being bent over the flat surface. The flat side of the half cylinder is partially covered at the end with the pin. The remaining part of this is open, revealing the inside of the half-cylinder. The curved surface is decorated with five raised lines running along the length. The object appears to be incomplete, as there is a worn break at the end opposite the pin attachment. The object has a dull brown patina with patches of light green-yellow corrosion. It is 33.10mm longm 16.28mm wide, 7.81mm thick and it weighs 6.6 grams. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Laura McLean | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
