Hello Lorenz, count me in!
AMS is a destructive method though. A bit of metal will have to be sacrificed and since the carbon content of iron/steel is low, maximum accuracy may not be feasible. Still it would be really nice to narrow down the age of this unique piece!
BTW, does Dr. Dizon possibly have a list of carbon-dated Philippine pieces?
