Bell-shaped stud with an oval-sectioned shank, cut to a point. The skirt has a single line incised around the waist. The face has a central dimpled cone with a concentric groove and a second groove around the edge. See Allason-Jones 1985 for a discussion of the use to which such objects could be put. This particular example is unusual in that the shank is made in one with the head but is of the shape usually associated with an added iron shank. The shaping however, is rough and it is possibly that this is a normal Type 2 which has been filed down for re-use.
