Description: | Copper alloyPossible Pendant or bead fragment; this may alternatively havebeen crimped to retain components of organic or other materials (now lost) - as with a brush, for example. Hollow oval end of an object made from thin copper alloy sheet. The surface is lightly corrugated in a spiral pattern, and bears two opposed circular perforations (diameter 2mm), apparently for its suspension. The sheet metal is raggedly torn, indicating the loss of a further uncertain extent. The survival of this thin metal object suggests a possible Post-Medieval or later date, perhaps 1500-1700.Length: 16.06mm, Diameter: 9mm, Thickness (of sheet): 0.21mm, Weight: 0.49gms.
