A cast copper alloy Roman miniature hammer, almost certainly intended for votive purposes. The hammer measures 42.65mm in length. The central part of the body expands on both sides to a rounded point and encloses a circular hole. Both terminals are blunt and rounded. The 'claw' end is not forked but expands slightly. Small areas of the surface are missing.
