Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy pipe tamper of post-medieval to early modern date. The tamper is in the shape of a clenched fist and stands on a double collared terminal. There is a wide hole present through the centre of the fist suggesting that it may once have held a further feature such as a small pipe as seen in BERK-2D6663 or two cone shapes as in SUR-48E9F2.The metal is a mid brownish-green colour and is slightly worn. The object is 36.8mm long, 14.4mm wide, 16mm thick and weighs 30.2g.
