A single ring-shaped object with a rough, pitted and encrusted surface, shown from above on a white card. A black square number label with white numerals sits in the centre of the ring's opening. The object is thick and irregular in outline, and its metal and condition are not clear from the photograph.

Description, scan 2: Several small finds, each near a black square number label, are laid out on a pale background. Two heavily corroded rings, a long pin with a flat head, bent rod-like pieces and a flat, broken blade-like fragment are shown with two dark beads, one elongated and one round. A rough fragment that may be pottery lies near the centre.
Description, scan 3: A slender, heavily corroded metal object runs vertically across the frame. It has a squared, slightly wider head at the top and tapers to a narrow, broken-looking end at the bottom. Its surface is pitted and encrusted, and it is shown against a pale grey background on a card mount with a cut corner.
Description, scan 4: Three small dark objects lie on a white card. On the left is an elongated, tapering piece with a small hole at its narrower end; in the centre is a smaller irregular piece with a flat underside, and on the right a rounded bead with a faint highlight. Two black square number labels with white numerals sit beneath the left and right objects.
Description, scan 5: Three long, corroded metal objects lie side by side against a pale background on a grey card mount. The left one is a straight, slender rod with a small slit near its middle, the centre one is a long curved rod, and the right one is flatter and irregular, with wavy edges and a broken end. Handwritten blue notes run along the bottom edge of the card.
Description, scan 6: A long, flat, broken object with a rough, pitted, dark corroded surface lies horizontally on a pale card. Its ends are irregular where the metal has broken away. A black number label with a white number sits below it.
Description, scan 7: Several corroded metal objects are laid out on a pale background, each beside a black square label with a number. They include two rings, a long pin with a head at one end, a curved strip, a flat fragment of sheet metal, and three beads: one barrel-shaped, one small and one round. A grey ceramic sherd lies among them, and the metal surfaces look heavily corroded.
Description, scan 8: Two corroded metal fragments are set upright against a pale background. The upper piece is a slender cylinder with a rounded top and ridged bands around its length. The lower piece is an irregular, crusted mass that widens toward its lower end, with a gap between the two pieces.
