Description: | A cast copper alloy pin, possibly a furniture pin or stud. The shaft of the pin tapers rapidly to a sharp point which does suggests a use for furniture rather than being a dress accessory. The domed head tapers sharply to the shaft, again suggesting that the head sat flush against a wooden object. A direct comparison for this pin could not be found, therefore a wide date range of Roman to the Post-medieval period is all that can be offered at the present time.
