Copper-alloy fragment, probably from a Roman bracelet (c. 43 - 410 AD). The fragment is a curved bar that is D-shaped in section, with a convex upper face and flat lower face. Corrosion has obscured the original surface but close scrutiny suggests that the upper face may have been moulded. The object appears to become thinner at one end. It has a matt green patina and is 38.91mm in length, 4.70mm in width and 2.98mm in thickness, with a weight of 2.63g. The thickness of this fragment is similar to identified Roman bracelets and the suggestion of moulding bears similarities to recor…

An incomplete silver post-medieval 'pine tree' Massachusetts shilling, date 1652 but minted between 1667 - 1674. Though dated '1652', such coins tend to be attributed to the period c. 1667 - c. 1674. All 'pine tree' issues show the date 1652 owing to the fact that the colony understood it had no rights to mint coinage, perhaps wanting to create the illusion it only minted during the period immediately after the Civil War (Newman 1973, 101-2; Sylla 1982, 24).
