A bronze "plug-like" pin with a distinct, shield-shaped head equipped with a conical spike. The shield bears a star inscribed in concentric circles formed by dots and continuous lines. Beneath the shield, there is an ornament consisting of two groups of concentric circles formed by engraved lines, two groups of diagonal lines arranged in a herringbone pattern, and rows of diagonal notches. The pin's shaft is decorated with series of longitudinal lines and two rows of wavy lines. This item is dated to the II-III phase of the Bronze Age and is associated with the pre-Lusatian culture (1800/1600–1300 BCE). It was discovered during archaeological research in the village of Borek. This pin was likely used for fastening elements of clothing.
