Description: | A cast copper-alloy bead of uncertain date. It is biconical in form with a circular perforation in the centre, 6.4mm in diameter. The bead appears to have been cast in a two piece mould as there is a casting ridge running round that outer edge. It measures 15.36mm in external diameter, 5.9mm in thickness, and weighs 5.15g. It is difficult to date copper alloy beads of this type out of context as they were in use from the Bronze Age though to the Early-Medieval period.
