Description: | Roman two-piece Colchester brooch of cast copper alloy. Each wing is moulded with four vertical grooves. The bow is a continuous curve and moulded with a raised ridge running along the length, with a groove along each edge of the bow. The perforated catchplate and the base of the bow are bent, but in tact. There is a central vertical lug on the rear of the wings holding the axis bar for the seperate 10 turned spring, however the pin is now missing. The brooch has a pale green patina, with patches of copper-alloy showing through.
