A complete but folded cast pewter spoon of post-medieval date. The spoon has a sub-oval bowl from which a circular stem extends. The stem terminates in a single collar surmounted by an elaborate stylised acorn knop. The front of the bowl has a stamped maker's mark, but this is indiscernible because the bowl of the spoon has been bent back towards the stem. The metal is a mid grey colour and is slightly worn. The spoon (bent) is 116.3mm (length) x 49.5mm (width), 10.2mm (thickness) and weighs 37.58g.<\/p>\n
Similar examples can be seen in Egan (2005, p.110-117) and they date to c. 1500-1700 AD.<\/p>\n\n","notes":null,"old_findID":"LON-0121C4","id":"469595","objecttype":"SPOON","classification":null,"subclass":null,"reuse":null,"created":"2011-11-01 15:37:06","broadperiod":"POST MEDIEVAL","updated":"2011-11-10 09:59:00","treasureID":null,"secwfstage":"4","secuid":"PAS4EB0121C0018A7","findofnote":null,"objecttypecert":"1","datefound1":"2011-03-01","datefound2":"2011-03-31","createdBy":"880","curr_loc":null,"inscription":null,"reason":null,"subsequentAction":"Returned to finder"}],"record":[{"id":"469595","old_findID":"LON-0121C4","uniqueID":"PAS4EB0121C0018A7","objecttype":"SPOON","classification":null,"subclass":null,"length":"165.2","height":null,"width":"4.3","thickness":null,"diameter":"4.3","quantity":"1","other_ref":null,"treasureID":null,"broadperiod":"POST MEDIEVAL","numdate1":"1500","numdate2":"1700","description":"\n
