Description: | A copper alloy Roman toggle. The toggle is shaped like a dumb-bell and is 21.5mm long and 11.1mm in diameter. The ends are globular and there is a platform on each lobe flanking the narrowed centre. S Worrell says that these toggles tend to date from the first to the third century. They were probably used as clothing fasteners. This example has a light green and brown patina, and is in good condition.
