Description: | A copper alloy 'dumb-bell' toggle which is probably Late Iron Age or Roman. The middle part of the toggle is circular in section with concave sides, and the ends are globular with a collar between the middle and the ends. This toggle does not have any form of attachment loop. Many similar examples have been recorded on the database, including NLM-D7E5C3, LIN-CD4987 and WMID-42B2B0. A similar example has also been found at Dragonby, North Lincolnshire and was dated from parallels as being from the 1st-3rd century AD (Knowles & May 1996, 273 no. 34 fig. 11.21). The toggle is 20mm long and has a diameter of 7.2mm. It has a smooth dark brown patina.
