Title
Nail cleaner
Description
English: An incomplete copper-alloy Roman nail cleaner of Hunchback Type. Its terminal is missing due to an old break. It is flat and measures 33.09mm in surviving length and 11.32mm in width, at its widest point. The complete upper terminal is circular measuring 10mm in diameter with a circular suspension perforation (2.3mm in diameter) through its centre. The base of the circle flares into sloping shoulders and the main shaft of the probable nail cleaner tapers but thickens towards its missing terminal.
