Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy bead of possible Roman date (AD 43 - AD 410). Diameter: 11.8mm; thickness: 3.9mm. Weight: 1.77g.The bead is almost circular in plan and the edge has a convex profile. An eccentric circular perforation with straight sides has a diameter of 4.8mm. Part of the bead is missing where there is an old break, perhaps due to a casting imperfection. The bead is in poor condition and corroded overall with scant remains of a mid-green patina. The bead was found at a site where Roman material is frequently located.
