View attachment 1713899Hello all, would anyone have an idea of the era this spoon would have been made? It’s very thin. It’s a shame it wasn’t whole. Many thanks! View attachment 1713898

It’s got a green patina so I’m guessing some kind of copper alloy but I’m new to this and still learning lol
I tried to spoon with a date one time, but ... oh,no .. you said spoon dating .. my bad!
It was found on a small pasture field in a village which is an old roman town and the oldest find in that area is a 4th cent roman coin. Most of the finds have been around a couple of hundred years old. Thanks for all your help!The way the stem attaches to the bowl does not closely resemble one of those in the figure below. Can you give us some context as to where you found it and what types of artifacts you found nearby? That could help zero in on the time frame.
