Title
Modern Unidentified Object
Description
English: An incomplete cast-in-one lead alloy unidentified object of probable Modern date. Post AD 1800. Length 25.6mm, width 22.3mm and 4.5mm thick. Weight 4.79g.

The object is in the form of an eight-spoked wheel, the rim of which has an outer diameter of 21.6mm. One of the spokes projects out 5.7mm from the periphery of the rim. The other spokes probably projected from the rim as well. However, these are missing due to old breaks and just the stubs of each have survived. At the front, within the rim of the wheel, there is a forward facing skull and crossbones motif. On the rear face, at the centre of the wheel, is a small circular boss.

The object is in poor condition and does not possess a patina. It has patches of grey/off white lead alloy corrosion products in places.
