Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy probable chisel of probable Medieval or Post-Medieval date (1200-1800). The chisel appears to be broken along the shaft and is rough and irregular; the wedge-shaped end is faceted and bent sideways. The shaft is cylindrical but tapers to a sub rectangular sectioned working end; the cutting edge is worn. The rounded shaft seems to indicate a more modern date. The object has slightly shiny bronze hue with mild amounts of medium green patination throughout. For other chisels of this period please see record IDs: SWYOR-C0EEC5 and CORN-4BDAC2.Length: 82mm; Width: 16mm; Thickness: 14.8mm; Weight: 91.62g
