Description: | A complete copper-alloy annular brooch frame with attached in stiu copper-alloy pin. The circular frame measures 25.3mm in external diameter and 19mm in internal diameter. The frame is now worn but has a hexagonal cross-section. It has a pin constriction around which the pin is attached via an open loop. The pin is flat and rectangular in shape, tapering to a point at its tip and measuring 25mm in length and 2mm in width. There are two parallel transverse grooves where the loop of the pin joins the shaft, these may be decorative or possibly the result of wear as there are other more irregular marks down the front face of the pin which are due to wear. This brooch is medieval and c14th century in date.
