Description: | A piece of shell, probably oyster, measuring 52.06mm in length, 47.79mm in width and 3.23 in thickness. The shell is mostly complete with the edges and a small portion of the bottom absent. The breaks are not recent. It is good, stable condition, although the upper layers of the outer surface are missing. There is no alteration made to the shell and so it is very hard to date. Thus, the shell probably dates between AD 43 and 1900. See find SWYOR-80D882 for another example.
