Description: | A post-medieval or modern gunflint from a flintlock musket. The flint is broadly rectangular in plan. The ventral surface is smooth and relatively flat; the bulb of percussion is absent. The dorsal face is bevelled on all sides, the bevel on the lower edge is more gradual than the others creating a sloping centre. There is some retouching or chipping to the upper edge and down the right edge on the ventral face and chipping along the lower edge. The flint is a dark grey colour with paler mottling. It is 23.1mm by 20.2mm by 8.1mm and weighs 5.66 grams. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
