Description: | An incomplete and corroded pin head of Roman to Post Medieval date. The pin head is plain and sub-spherical in form with an integral thin pin-shaft protruding around 8mm from the base which terminates in an old break. The fragment is undiagnostic and can only be assigned a broad date range. There is no characteristic green colouration on the surface associated with copper alloy corrosion; where underlying metal is exposed it is grey in colour. Accordingly, the metal is most likely an alloy high in tin.
