Description: | A drop-shaped Iron Age toggle cast from copper-alloy. Obverse 'eye' design, with circular inner edge tapering to pointed outer edge. An undecorated circle in relief forms the 'pupil' of the eye (7.5mm in diameter). The reverse features a central concave depression which imitates the overall shape of the object. Between this depression and the inner edge is the beginning of the loop; this is otherwise missing following an old break. The toggle is similar to an example illustrated in Murawski (2003, 83; fig. I13-0206).
