Description, scan 2: A heavily corroded iron object, long and narrow, with a wider lower body that tapers to a narrower top. Its surface is rough, pitted and encrusted, and a few pale lines or cracks run across the body. It is shown upright on a plain pale grey background within a light card mount, and the corrosion makes its original form hard to make out in detail.
