Description: | A copper alloy Roman toggle. The toggle is shaped like a dumb-bell and is 21.5mm long and 11.1mm in diameter. The ends are globular and there is a platform on each lobe flanking the narrowed centre. S Worrell says that these toggles tend to date from the first to the third century. They were probably used as clothing fasteners. This example has a light green and brown patina, and is in good condition. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
