Description, scan 2: A single long, heavily corroded metal object lies vertically across a pale card mount. Its upper end widens into a leaf-shaped blade with a pointed tip, and below it a narrow stem with knobby swellings tapers to a point at the bottom. A handwritten number label, partly visible at the left, reads 54a.
