Description: | Copper alloy vessel repair fragment. Fragment from a patch of copper alloy sheet with one angular edge and its other sides torn, of thickness 0.4mm with two slots of length 4.5mm. A tapered strip of similar thickness sheet passes through one of these slots and is folded twice: once at its broad end to produce a square head which could not pass easily through the slot, and once at its pointed end, perhaps to fasten the patch against the inside of the putative vessel. Another similar patch (NLM-7C7159) was reported along with this one. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1700.Length: 39.7mm, Width: 32.3mm, Thickness: 0.5mm, Weight: 3.55gms.
