Record ID: HAMP-08A861
Object type: CASTING WASTE
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A gold object of uncertain date or function, 25.2mm in length and composed of a pale alloy, likely electrum or a low quality gold. The object is flat but twisted and tapers to a curved end and with a ragged break across the wider end. The surface on both flat sides is unfinished and without evidence of working; it also demonstrates a texture suggesting that it is a cooled melt. Possibly a fragment of casting waste or a partially melted ingot from us metal working.
