Title
Anglo Saxon disc headed pin with interlace decoration.
Description
English: Saxon disc headed pin head, 8th or 9th century. The disc is decorated with an equal-armed cross, with a simple double-bordered tri-lobed interlace knot (triquetra) in each quarter. The top of the shaft is rectangular sectioned and has two simple steps before the relatively thin circular sectioned pin shaft. The top left edge of the disc is damaged. There is no evidence for a piercing to link this to another pin, although the piercing could have been at the damaged edge. No trace of gilding present. Length 42.62mm, width 28.32mm, thickness (across disc) c.1mm, thickness (across top of pin shaft) 2.22mm, weight 4.11g.
