Copper alloy Pin. Pressed metal concavo-convex plate representing a daisy or similar small petalled flower with a drawn wire pin of length 11.5mm with a crimped cut end brazed to the back. The head is thin and its good condition despite this delicacy may suggest a use more akin to that of a drawing pin rather than as a mount. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1800-1900.Diameter: 17.8mm, Thickness (plate): 0.4mm, Weight: 1.12gms.
