Description: | A post medieval copper alloy (latten) spoon fragment. The part of the handle that remains is rectangular in shape and parallel sided throughout its length, the terminal is lost to an old break. The section is 6.4mm x 2.6mm. Only a small proporition of the bowl remains and it appears to have been rughly soldered to the handle on the back. The fragment is too small to be indicative of date, however, the back of the handle has an impressed mark od I:ST with a pellet above the S, probably a makers mark. The style of the lettering used and the colon letter seperator may suggest a later date. The spoon is made of copper alloy which has been tinned with a thick coating which has only worn awy at the corners, presumably imitating pewter.
