Description: | An apparently complete but rather short Post-Medieval (17th century) silver Bodkin, measuring 64.8x(max)4.0x(max)1.3mm and weighing 2.08g.The wider end is slightly flatter (0.99mm thick) and angularly cut into a triangle. This is pierced with a 1.7mm diameter hole. Below is a rectangular longitudinal opening 10.8x0.6mm. The bodkin narrows to a rounded point, 1.9mm wide and 1.1mm thick. The bodkin is thickest (1.3mm) around the centre, where it measures 3.3mm wide and has slightly rounded edges. The bodkin is plain and without decoration. Cf. SF-7B0BA7 on this database which is similarly plain and short.
