Description: | Roman copper alloy base of a rosette brooch, 33mm long, 25mm wide and 2mm thick. The brooch is in fair condition with a brown patina and weighs 8.60grams. The object consists of the base plate of the brooch and is trapezoidal in form. It has a rounded upper surface which contains a circular hole, 4mm in diameter, which would have held the rest of the brooch in place. It has two semi-circular protrusions at each side, just below the level of the hole. It has a slightly protruding ridge running along the front of the straight base. The catchplate, which is intact and sits in the centre of the reverse, just above the base, is 10mm high and 7mm wide.
