Description: | Gilt copper alloy disc brooch. The brooch is circular with a deep channel circa 7mm in width running around the central boss. There is an inner circular rib that secures a conical 'black' glass setting. About one third of the edge of the brooch is damaged. The pin lug is missing on the reverse and the catchplate is incomplete.
This type of brooch is common in the south and east of England and is thought to be a British type since relatively few are known from the continent (Bailey, 2004, p178). | Subjects: | Disc | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
