A copper alloy pint head of uncertain date.
The object consists of polyhedral pin which has a conical point projecting from one side. From the opposite side is a shaft with a circular section although this is broken. There is no decoration on the any of the faces of the pin head.
There are several polyhedral pin heads recorded on the PAS database, see for example BH-907351 and YORYM-6BB423 however they often feature ring and dot decoration which this example does not.
