Title
GLO-B4FE9B Roman Nail cleaner
Description
English: ~~A copper alloy nail cleaner that has a narrow leaf-shaped blade that is widest to the top of the artefact. The lower part of the blade gently narrows to the base where that is a C-shaped point. The sides of the blade are decorated with a line of stamped crescents. At the top of the blade is a flanged bar that sits below a now truncated loop.

~~A similar example from excavations in Colchester are illustrated by Crummy (1983) on page 58, fig.62, nos. 1874 which is classified as Type 2a
