1. Preheat oven 200C and place rack in middle of oven.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Blend butter into the flour mixture.
3. Stir in the raisins and pecans.
4. In a separate bowl mix together the pumpkin puree and vanilla and then add the mixture to the flour mixture. Mix just until the dough comes together.
5. Transfer to a floured surface and knead dough gently four or five times and then pat the dough into a circle (18 cm) round.
6. Cut this circle in half, then cut each half into 3 triangles. Place the scones on the baking sheet. Brush the tops of the scones with the egg and milk mixture.
