Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy pin of probable middle Early medieval (Anglo-Saxon) date (S.West, 1998, p. 119, fig. 3).
The head is polyhedral, having multiple flattened faces and measures 13.1mm wide by 12.6mm high. There is a drilled hole on the underside into which the shaft is slotted. The shaft is broken vertically and only half survives, although it would originally have been of circular section. It tapers to a point at the bottom.
Overall the object measures 37.6mm long and weighs 12.24g. | 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: | 720
