UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT

Unique ID: NCL-632933

Object type certainty: Certain

A fragment of thick gold sheet, roughly pentagonal in shape and part cut, part broken from a larger piece; width, 23 mm. It is undecorated and has no diagnostic features, so is undatable. Due to the undiagnostic nature of the find and lack of a secure archaeological context it can not be securely dated to pre-1707 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.
