Description: | Romano-British copper alloy glass centre-boss brooch, pin and centre-boss missing, stubs of catchplate and single pin lug only. The front is gilded and the reverse has traces of white-metal coating. Single ring of punched elongated S-shaped stamps. Cf. Hattatt no. 1214 and Mackreth 1996, fig. 99 no. 80. Diameter 23mm. Mackreth (op. cit., 321-2) argued that such brooches were manufactured towards the end of the 2nd century and in the first quarter or half of the 3rd. Bayley and Butcher (2004, 178-9) suggested that production may have continued into the 4th century.
