Description

Two fragments of a corroded iron object lie end to end in a vertical line, with the upper piece tapering to a point and the lower piece broken off at the top. The rough, pitted surface shows the heavy rust and encrustation typical of iron, and the object fills most of the tall, narrow frame. A handwritten label is partly visible at the bottom edge.
