Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy pin of uncertain date. All that remains of the pin is the circular sectioned stem which is swollen slightly towards the middle where it is bent. The head of the pin no longer remains.Due to a lack of diagnostic features and any contextual evidence it is not possible to ascribe a date to this object. While the swelling on the shaft is a common feature of early-medieval pins this cannot be used as firm basic for dating purposes.The metal is a mid greenish-brown colour and is worn. The pin is 94.6mm long, 3.2mm in diameter and weighs 6.1g.
