Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Roman disc brooch. The flat circular disc is decorated on the front with a hexactinal pattern with a little disc at the points. The inner area has red enamel and in the centre is a small circular disc with light blue enamel. Each of the discs at the points has the same light blue enamel. The background of the disc has fragmentary dark blue enamel. On the back of the disc are a pierced single lug and a complete catch plate. The pin is missing but iron corrosion inside the lug suggests that the pin was iron. The diameter is 22.3mm, the thickness is 7.1mm and the weight is 3.82g. | Subjects: | Disc | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Staves, Lisa - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
