Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman Colchester Two-Piece brooch. The lower portion of the bow remains. The break is not recent as the condition of the break??s surface matches the unbroken surfaces of the brooch. In profile, the bow is straight and is a semi-circle in section. The bow tapers to a circular sectioned foot. The bow is undecorated. The foot is decorated with a pair of horizontal ridges. On the reverse of the bow there is an incomplete solid catchplate. The surface of the brooch has a light grey/green coloured patina. The brooch measures 41.37mm long and 5.64mm wide across the break and weighs 3.4g.
The brooch is a Colchester Two-Piece brooch. The type is uncertain, but probably dates to the first to second centuries. | Subjects: | Colchester Two-Piece | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
