Description: | A Post Medieval lead alloy (pewter) terminal of a spoon handle dated AD167-. This terminal is in the shape of a tryfid with the central lobe enlarged. This central lobe bears a circular stamp with a central heart and two concentric rings of inscription. The outer ring reads "IOSEPH COPFIELD 167[-]"; the inscription on the inner ring seems more irregular than on the outer ring, it appears to read "CHUCKATUCK". On the reverse of the handle is the end of an engraved inscription, only the last letter remains and that appears to be a "P" underscored. One of the smaller side lobes is bent slightly out of alignment. Below the tryfid terminal the spoon handle tapers until the break, the rest of the spoon is broken and missing.Dimensions: length: 46.45 mm; width: 22.59mm; thickness: 3.01mm; weight: 12.91g.
