Title
KENT-DFD91C - A complete Post-medieval silver bodkin.
Description
English: A complete Post-medieval silver bodkin. The object has been bent back on itself and is now U-shaped. The object consists of a circular eye at one end, which is connected to a cylindrical shaft by a narrowed neck. The shaft tapers to a rounded point, which is decorated with four engraved transverse bands, creating three raised ridges.

The bodkin measures 44.2 mm in length, 12.2 mm wide, 4.1 mm thick and weighs 5.85 g.

Many similar examples have been recorded including NMS-07864A, NMS-144545 and WAW-8B5CB3.
