Description: | A cast lead Viking brooch.
The brooch is circular and flat. It has been decorated on the front with a ladder-style border. Inside this are three crescents, each decorated with the ladder-style border. There is a raised crescent inside each one. There is a Y-shaped field between the crescents. There is a central, large pellet and a row of smaller pellets in each arm of the ??Y??.
The reverse is flat and undecorated. The remains of the lug and catchplate can be seen and these have been arranged longitudinally. Both parts are badly squashed and damaged. No pin survives. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
