Description: | A medieval copper-alloy thimble of cast construction. The thimble is domed with slightly flared sides and a pointed top. The drilled pits begin at the top, the uppermost part of which is bare, and continue in a continuous circular form to the edge of the flared sides; the sides have vertical drilled holes. There is a small perforation adjacent to the central point. At the base of the thimble is a double grooved border. The thimble has been squashed slightly and has a variable mid-green patina with patches of off-white corrosion product.
