Description: | Copper alloy possible metalworking debris. Melted object whose upper surface retains traces of two concentric incised, possibly lathe turned, lines around a central hole of diameter 7.5mm, possibly for a separate handle [now lost]. The lower surface is uneven, with a rust stain at one end, though probably indicates the metal has solidified on a flat surface. This was a post-medieval object, and its melting may be fortuitous, as in a bonfire, though the high melting point of copper alloy would make such accidental damage uncommon. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1900.Weight: 32.05gms.
