Object type: KEY (LOCKING)
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small rotary key, cast in copper alloy. The bow is circular and fairly small; it is somewhat mis-cast and lumpy. There are two collars; a larger one adjacent to the bow and a smaller one, which becomes the rest of the stubby solid stem. The bit is simple, with two badly-cast clefts, one on each side. There is a short projecting tip. The casting is poor, with surviving flash. The key appears to have been used, though, as the bit has horizontal scratches on both sides. The surface is a dull green colour, with little wear. The key is probably medieval in date.

Object type: COIN
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Small rather thick coin (diam 11.5mm, thickness varying c.1.8 to 2.5mm), slightly dished and almost certainly Iron Age. Metal probably silver but discoloured. The reverse makes most sense as a horse to right, in the style of Icenian Pattern-Horse types with a double mane and simplified body but the obverse has a couple of high relief spots which make no sense as an Iceni design. Perhaps heat damaged?

An unidentified object made of copper alloy and iron. The artefact consists of a flat oval copper alloy plate (38mm x 23.7mm x 1.3mm, 5.95g) with a sub-circular 4mm perforation at each end. These holes apparently received iron rivets or pins, the corroded ends of which remain in the other object; this second piece is formed of a flat copper alloy strip, with small rectangular block ‘feet’ at each end, in the bases of which are the stubs of the rivets (32.5mm x 12.32 x 7.4mm, 9.46g). The upper surface of both the plate and fitting are decorated with stamped and punched designs, whic…

A cast copper alloy signet or 'merchant's' ring (diameter of hoop: 24mm; length of bezel: 14.9mm; width/ thickness of bezel: 9.9mm; weight: 6.22g). There are unrecognisable designs indented in the bezel, including what appears to be two lines either side of a swirled design.

Signet rings were used for impressing wax seals for attachment to documents and letters. These rings with merchants' marks on the bezel were used by merchants and traders particularly in the …
