Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A heavily abraded cast copper alloy fragment of uncertain date or function. The object is in 46.8m in length and slightly curved in side profile with a flat sub rectangular cross section. On one side is a 7mm wide prong, probably one of two with the second now lost and a rectangular slot (5mm wide) between. This prong ends in an incomplete spatulate terminal which appears to have been hammered flat. At the base of this prong is a collar or decorative moulding of four ridges to either side. The other end has an old break and there are no markings or other decoration.

Object type: COIN BLANK
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A circular copper alloy object, 16.8mm diameter and 8g in weight, with a curved cross section. One face is convex, the other concave which suggests an Iron Age coin blank; the weight of the object however does not correspond to IA copper alloy units or staters.

A hooked cast copper alloy fragment, 41.4mm in length possibly intended to represent a snake with its head curved around. One side has a row of moulded subrectangular lobes, with a trapezoidal lobe at the end of the hook (Possibly a head), after which there is a narrow projection (possibly a serpent's tongue). The shaft of the object has a sub rectangular cross section and ends in an old break.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A gold fragment of irregular shape which has breaks and fracturing all around. One side is broadly flat; on the opposite side is a small flat area which is at an angle. There are no signs of working, no marks and no indication as to what the fragment broke away from. Possibly part of an ingot, but of uncertain date.

Object type: INGOT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An unmarked disc of white metal, possibly silver, 0.85g, 10.8mm in diameter and 1.5mm thick. The size and weight are broadly consistent with an identification as an unstruck coin blank or a small ingot; however the form and weight are not diagnostic as to date. One surface is smooth and unmarked, the other has fracture or fold lines suggesting that the object may have been folded over from flat sheet metal and then hammered. There is some damage and loss to one edge.

Object type: WIRE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of twisted gold wire of uncertain date and function, most likely part of an earring or other item of jewellery. The wire originally had a square cross section and has been twisted along most of its length and bent into an S-shape. There is a short section of around 10mm on the outside of the larger bend which appears not to have been twisted; this may be an original feature relating to the function of the object, perhaps suggestive of a suspension loop.

Object type: CASTING WASTE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An assemblage of nine fragments of copper alloy casting waste totalling 83.68g, of potentially Bronze Age date to Post-Medieval date. One fragment is a cone-shaped casting gate with two projecting feeders into a casting mould. This represents the waste metal that would have 'plugged' the pouring funnel of a mould and would have been removed from a finished object. This is similar in form to known Bronze Age examples (LEIC-9D58D5 and ESS-3E54E3); however casting waste is very hard to date in isolation from a finished artefact and so these fragments may well represent more recent a…

An abraded and corroded copper alloy fragment, possibly from a Bronze Age ingot or from casting waste, but undiagnostic in its present form. There are deep grooves on two sides the object, however it is not clear if these are functional or from casting flaws.
