A copper-alloy pin or nail of probable Roman date. The head is bi-conical, with most of the height being in the upper part. It measures 10.4mm high by 9.8mm wide. The shaft is square in section and tapers to a point. Overall, the object is 26mm long and it weighs 5.05g. Similar pins have been found in Roman levels at Colchester (N. Crummy; 1983; pp. 115).

Object type: HOOKED TAG
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Hertfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A slightly damaged copper-alloy hooked tag of probable early post-medieval date. The hanger is largely missing, but the remainder is rectangular in section and it is probable that it would originally have been sub-rectangular in plan. The plate lies immediately below and is sub-circular. It takes the form of a flowerhead, with a recessed circular cell at the centre and eight surrounding petals, depicted through the use of recessed cells and a scalloped outer edge to the plate.
