Description: | Cast copper alloy annular brooch pin of Medieval date, c.1200-1500. The pin consists of a square sectioned shaft with a c-shaped hook at one end. Below the hook sits a collar of two raised ridges, the closest to the hook being slightly larger than the other. The shaft gently tapers towards a rounded point at the opposite end. The pin would have been attached to the brooch by the hook. The hook is 12mm by 9mm. The pin measures 45mm in total length, with a maximum width of 5mm tapering down to 3mm. It weighs 3.87 grams.
