Middle Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy pin with globular head and an integral collared shaft. The shaft is bent once (around 70-80 degrees) and may be complete. It measures approximately 42mm from the collar at base of the head to the tapering but blunt tip. The head is almost entirely covered with punched ring-and-dot impressions. There are four on the upper hemisphere, surrounding a small slightly-flattened area directly on top (opposite the shaft), seven around the middle, and six surrounding the shaft on the underside, none of which are particularly regularly-spaced.  The shaft is …

There is also some iron corrosion on the reverse here, which could be from the pin. The frame is otherwise well preserved here, and at 6.1mm wide appears to retain its original width.

The overall surviving length is 21.1mm, maximum width 12.8mm and maximum thickness (at moulding) 6.0mm. It weighs 4.93g. It seems likely that this is one of the mouldings at the top of a horse's …

This shape of headplate is often known as 'trefoil'. On the reverse of the headplate is a broken pin bar lug (worn breaks) with iron staining around it. All the edges of the headplate are worn.

The flat headplate is very worn and its original shape is uncertain, but it has the remains of deep U-shaped cut-outs in both its lower edge and its upper corners, forming three knobs. These may have had straight ends, as the top and one side knob each retain a straight row of crescentic stamps along their edges. On the reverse of the headplate is a large double pin bar lug, one lug incomplete and the other retaining part of an iron pin bar. There is extensive iron corrosion between the two lugs.  The bow…
