Full Description
A Class V bronze spearhead. It is leaf-shaped with rivet holes, and was found some years prior to 1880. In 1962, the spearhead was reported to be in Blair's College, near Aberdeen, where its state was described as 'less than very fine' and the entire shaft below the blade was missing, as was part of the shaft inside the blade, especially one face. It is probably of Greenwell and Brewis Class V.
