Description: | A copper-alloy pin of probable Late Medieval to early-post-Medieval date.The slender, circular-sectioned shaft is straight and of equal diameter throughout much of its length, only tapering at the point. The top of the shaft is located within a central perforation in the globular head.Length: 57.3mm; width (diameter) of head: 4.95mm. Weight 1.14g.Several similar pins were found in excavations in London, the majority in 14th to 15th century contexts (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 297 - 304); however, a slightly later date is also possible.
