Title
A late Medieval or early Post Medieval thimble.
Description
English: The object is a late Medieval or early Post Medieval thimble. It is possibly cast from copper alloy. The thimble has been flattened and has lost its upper ‘cap’, as the upper edge is a broken edge.

 The rim of the thimble is unthickened and undecorated. The indentations are in regular rows and are rectangular cells. 


 
 The original surface of the object is mainly missing. There are occasional patches of a well developed mid green patina.
It weighs 3.95g. Measures 18.2mm tall, and 28.7mm wide.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Warwickshire
