Description: | A cast copper-ally object of uncertain date or function. It is circular in section, pointed-oval shaped in plan, tapering to rounded ends. The surfaces have a worn and pitted green patina that shows some signs of corrosion and no obvious means of attachment to a larger object. It measures 26.13mm in length, 12.64mm in diameter, and weighs 15.36g. The precise function of this object is uncertain. It resembles cast copper-alloy beads but lacks a drilled perforation, although it is possible it may be unfinished. Similarly, it may be an unfinished blank for an item of differing function, but precisely what remains uncertain. It is of unknown date and may belong to any period from the Bronze Age onwards.
