Description: | An incomplete, cast copper-alloy pinhead of Early Medieval date, c. 750-900.Only the head remains, and this is diamond-like in section, with 6 facets on the upper half and 4 larger facets on the lower half. These facets are irregular in shape in size and may have originally bore stamped ring-and-dot decoration, though wear obscures this. The base of the pinhead indicates where it was soldered to the shaft of the pin.
