Description

A round metal object with an irregular, corroded edge and a pitted surface, seen straight on. Several raised concentric rings run across the face, and the lower and left areas carry a dense pattern of small raised bumps, with pale crusts and dark corrosion patches on the surface. It lies flat against a plain grey backdrop.
