Description: | Cast copper-alloy plate brooch. Circular with six rounded lugs around the periphery; one at the top and bottom and two on each side just above and below the centre. There are four scars places equidistantly between the lugs in each quadrant, but it is unlikely thyat lugs were present here. Three raised concentric mouldings; one at the centre, one as an outer border and one in between the two, resulting in three fields. Traces of green enamel surviving in the outer field only. Traces of white metal coating on the raised borders. Single pierced lug to hold hinged pin; only the upper part of the pin secured with an iron axis bar survives. Catchplate intact.
