Description: | Lead alloy and steel toy fragment. Cast plate of curved form with turned over edges and with two ferrous metal fixing pins towards one end. The fixing pins pass through an angular panel rendered in relief, and probably attached this plate to a similar counterpart. Patinated overall. Larger fragments of this form have been suggested to be from miniature toy pistols, often of antique forms like a pirate's pistol despite a relatively recent date of manufacture, some with some mechanical functioning allowed for. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1800-1900.Length: 21.6mm, Height: 12.3mm, Thickness (clear of pins): 1.0mm, Weight: 3.28gms
