Description: | Copper alloy penannular brooch with complete pin dating from the 1st Century BC to the 1st Century AD. The brooch hoop is circular in plan and in section. At both terminals there are milled knops with collars but the hoop is plain.
The brooch has a complete pin made from a strip of copper alloy wrapped at one end around the hoop. The pin tapers to a point and has a humped back indicating a possible late Iron Age date.
The brooch weighs 5.57g and measures 32.26mm in diameter and approximately 12mm in thickness including the pin. | Subjects: | Penannular | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
