Object type: BEAD
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy possible bead of uncertain date. The bead is sub circular in plan and D shaped in cross section with a flat inner side and convex outer side; the sides are irregular in thickness and width. A crack across one side indicates where two ends of a rod were hammered around and butted together to form the bead. There is a very fine incised pair of lines round the centre of the bead. The lines join in places, and are straight in some areas an wavy to the point of scalloping in one area. It is not clear whether these are decoration, damage or a product of the manufacturing pr…

Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A piece of metal working debris; waste material, probably a solidified spill. The metal looks to be lead alloy but is surprisingly light, so may be another white metal. It is sub rectangular and irregular on one face where it was in contact with the ground, and rounded on the other face which was exposed to the air. It has an intermittent grey patina. This waste material is impossible to date, but is recorded as a potential indicator of metal working.

Object type: CUFF LINK
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post medieval copper alloy disc from a cuff link. The object is silvered and in fair condition with a grey green patina. The disc is circular and has a flared rim which sits below a raised border. The surface is decorated with a crown above two raised hearts in relief. The reverse is hollow and the attachment loop is missing. Cf LEIC-9EA3E3. The cuff link dates from the 17th century and many similar examples are known. Often they were made in silver which would mean that they have to be declared as Treasure, but as this example is only silvered, it does not contain 10% precious …

Object type: CUFF LINK
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A silver disc or single cuff link element from a pair of Post Medieval cuff links. The disc is octagonal and broken with the edge missing round one quarter. Octagonal cuff links are normally dated to the 18th century, and cannot be firmly dated to before or after 1711. For this reason they are usually not considered as Treasure. This example has an incised octagonal border with concave sides, surrounding a flower with rounded petals. On the reverse (which is hollow) is the remains of a broken attachment loop.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead alloy token of uncertain Medieval to Post Medieval date, circa 1200 - 1800. On one face is the design of a cross pattee with a circular centre. On the other is an uncertain design of possible a crown, or maybe the letter E (IP). This design is probably inspired by the coinage of the time and can suggest a medieval date.
