Copper alloy pin. Cast pin with a flattened or faceted globular head above a double collar over a further bulbous element with diagonal cuts, the latter with a further plain collar below it. A round-section shank [of diameter 2.6mm] continues to a tapered point. The pin is now bent at right angles a little below its head, which is a common feature of Early Medieval pins and may relate to their use to fasten coiffure or a veil, and may equally arise from the similar use of, rather than damage to, this example. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410 Length: 59.5mm, Diameter (at head): 5.4mm, Wei…

Copper alloy possible pin. A possibly cast thin shank of width/thickness 2mm, broken at one end, thickened with a D-section expanded plano-convex (i.e. flat on one side and humped on the other) head. Spots of white metal plating appear along a narrow shank of undifferentiated width and thickness. This was found next to a shorter and slotted object (NLM-A3934C) and the finder suggests they may be parts of the same object. They may alternatively be functionally related, perhaps as elements of the same sewing kit. For this object an alternative, possibly medical or surgical, use as a prob…

Copper alloy pin. Cast pin with round-section shank [tip lost] and a flat bipartite head: the upper part is triangular with concave sides and the lower part is oval or sub-rectangular.

Silver pin. A small and tapered round-section shank with a sub-spherical collared head. The top of the head is now flat, probably due to its having been hammered. The simple form would be apt to upholstery work and is known from the Roman period onwards, though the use of silver suggests decorative intent. A collar might be expected on pins [though intended for other purposes] from the Middle Saxon period. However, a later date cannot be ruled out. The use of silver upholstery pins would be unusual in recent times, which may suggest that the object should be submitted to the Treasure p…
