Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy dress pin of either Roman or middle Early Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) date. The pin is globular headed (or sub-spherical) in form, with the head decorated with incised ring and dot motifs. A short length of the circular-sectioned pin survives below the head. There is no collar below the head which is usually taken as an indicator that a pin is definitely of middle Anglo-Saxon date although lack of a collar does not necessarily mean it is of Roman date.The pin has been broadly dated AD 43 - 950 in order to encompass both possible date-ranges.
