potinn.¹

Brit.

/ˈpɒtã/,

/ˈpɒtan/, U.S.

/pɑˈtɑn/

Forms: 1600s pottain, 1700s– potin.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French potin, potain, pottein.

Etymology: < Middle French, French potin (also †potain, †pottein) a copper-based metal alloy originally used as pot metal, often from recycled utensils (14th cent. or earlier), (in archaeology) a similar alloy used for ancient coins (1740 in the passage translated in quot. 1741 at sense 2) < pot pot n.¹ + -in , of uncertain identity (see below). Compare pot metal n.The suffix is explained by Französisches etymol. Wörterbuch at pottus as derived < classical Latin *-īmen (rather than -īnus -ine suffix¹), but this does not appear to be a productive suffix in Latin or to give rise to a productive suffix in French. Perhaps compare classical Latin -men (see -ment suffix).

†1. Pot metal, esp. old or worn pot metal. Obsolete.

1601 P. Holland tr. Pliny Hist. World II. xxxiv. ix. 505 Such pottain [Fr. pottein, L aeris collectanei] or old mettall which is ouerworne, and by ordinary occupying and vsing to the hand, bright-shining.

1825 ‘J. Nicholson’ Operative Mechanic 348 To work all the surface into furrows or grooves, in order that it may retain the substance called the potin, which is to be welded upon one side of the iron, to form the hard matter on which the holes are to be pierced. This potin is nothing but fragments of old cast-iron pots.

1825 ‘J. Nicholson’ Operative Mechanic 349 It must be repeatedly heated and worked until the potin fixes to the iron. The workman then throws dry powdered clay upon it, in order..to soften the potin.

2. Archaeology. An alloy of copper and tin, usually with lead and zinc (sometimes perhaps with silver), formerly used in the manufacture of coins (typically cast rather than struck), notably by ancient Celtic peoples of Gaul and southern Britain (frequently attributive). Now also: a coin made of this alloy.
