Description: | Copper alloy.Possible Ingot. Cast plano-convex fragment from an object with flat ends and tapering sides; broken at one end. This object resembles tongue-shaped ingots ascribed to the Late Iron Age, though other times, particularly in the Early Medieval period, might also see the reworking of scrap. As the object is broken, nothing can be adduced from its obviously incomplete weight. Suggested Date: Unknown, but possibly between Late Iron Age and Early Medieval, 300 BC to AD 1000.Length: 31.01mm, Width: 28mm, Thickness: 5.4mm, Weight: 23.45gms.
