Description: | Copper alloy penannular brooch length 48mm, width 53mm, thickness 5mm, weight 8.05g. Round section frame, the ends have been flattened and turn back on them selves twice to give a scroll effect terminal. The pin is made from copper alloy with the terminal bent round into a loop. The overall condition is poor, because corrosion has affected much of the artefact leaving a heavily pitted surface with bright green powdery patches.
This type of brooch corresponds with Flowers type C and dates to the 1st century BC to 1st century AD | Subjects: | penannular | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Adams, Kurt - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
