Description: | A copper alloy Medieval pin probably from an annular brooch or buckle. The pin is 46.50 mm in length and has a rectangular cross-section that tapers over its length to a blunt point with concave wear from contact with the frame. The attachment end consists of a complete penannular loop. Adjacent to the loop on the upper face is a raised moulding with no discernable pattern or design. A very similar pin is shown in Egan: Dress Accessories 1150-1450 (2002) p115; No. 547 from a context which is dated through ceramic association to circa 1350-1400 AD. The pin weighs 5.98 grammes and has a olive-green colour.
