Description

Three long, slender metal objects lie on a pale card, each with a rounded knob at one end and a tapering point at the other. The two upper objects have a swollen collar part-way along the shaft, while the lower one is shorter and set diagonally. A small dark tag hangs on a string from the lower object, and the surfaces look corroded and pitted.
