Broad period: MODERN

Workflow stage: Published
An incomplete copper alloy object, with a head which is cuboid, square in cross-section and faceted, and a stem which is circular in cross-section and bent out of shape. Total length: 14.57mm, width of head: 6.5 x 6.8mm, thickness of stem: 3.09mm, weight: 2.66g. Although this resembles a pin of Cool's (1990, 164) group 15, it is more likely to be a modern hook, perhaps for a coat or strings for a blind, etc. Compare NLM-B5DF46, LVPL-4CF45C, LEIC-B30068, SF-D59BA6. Probably 19th or 20th century.
