Description: | An incomplete copper alloy Roman brooch, with a plain, tapered bow of sub-circular section and an openwork catchplate (not all of which survives). The wings are fragmentary and appear not to be enclosed. A pierced lug between the wings has traces of iron corrosion from the pin (this and the spring mechanism is now lost). There is a loop at the top of the head of the brooch formed by a strip folded over towards the bow. | Subjects: | Colchester | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ghey, Eleanor - British Museum | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
