Ave!

Copper alloy; 30mm/5.7gm

Ave!

Here is a much larger, heavy and more evolved example.

Copper alloy; 50mm/26.8gm

Unlike the first and smaller example, this one has an iron pin at the top.

Again, not exactly sure concerning the use of these artifacts, but they must have been connectors for something...but what?
