Description: | A copper-alloy stud or nail of Post-Medieval date. It has a hollow, dome-shaped head with grooves running from its centre to outer edge creating eight equal triangular segments. Traces of gilding can be seen in the grooves. At the centre of the back face is an integrally cast rivet that is rectangular in section and tapers towards a blunt tip. The entire object measures 26.23mm in diameter, 28.56mm in length and 12.11g in weight. This stud or nail is of Post-Medieval date, probably from between the 16th to 18th centuries AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
