Description: | Copper alloyBolt. Cast dome-headed lathe-turned bolt with screw thread, and a circular 'nut' or sleeve which is engaged with its upper part. The bolt is slightly tapered, narrowing from diameter 6.67mm at its flat end, to diameter 6.22mm where three bands of screw thread are added; further traces probably reflect turning of a round section rod rather than a further extent of worn thread. The screw thread appears to have been added on a lathe, and the object does not appear to be a mass produced item. Fine patina overall. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800. Length: 60.63mm, Diameter (head): 11.62mm, Weight: 24.57gms.
