Description: | A cast copper-alloy fragment from a Roman Trumpet brooch. The flared trumpet head survives, as does the upper section of the bow. The head is sub-circular with a protrusion at the terminal, probably a broken loop. Semi-circular perforated lugs survive on the lower surface, but the axis bar and pin are missing. As it travels down the bow flares, then constricts before a moulding that features incised transverse lines on its lower surface. The brooch has been bent laterally and the remainder is now missing. The fragment has an even, mid-green patina.
