online resource
posted on 2021-10-26, 15:07 authored by Helena HamerowHelena Hamerow
Crude bronze disc brooch, diam. 2.5cm with plain flat rim defined by groove and irregular slashed design perhaps imitating a radiate coin. Almost certainly Roman. At back twin pierced lugs (broken) for spring coil and broken catch. Pin lost but presumably bronze since no iron staining.
