Description: | Late Iron age/early Roman copper alloy le Tene III brooch, 51mm long, 26mm wide and 5mm thick. The object is in fair condition with a green patina and weighs 7.82grams. The object is missing its spring and pin. It has a sub circular section and is curved. Its lower edge flattens out into an incomplete catchplate, which has a triangular form and part of a circular hole visible near its broken edge. The upper part of the brooch narrows and it has snapped just where it begins to curl back on itself to form the spring. The brooch matches example 12 in Fig.149 in Hattatt's ancient brooches.
