Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy Roman Trumpet brooch dating from 75-175 AD. The trumpet head is undecorated. Behind the head there is a tubular hinged mechanism for holding the pin. The pin no longer survives. The head loop is also missing. The upper bow is triangular in section and there are three wide collars around it. The bow has broken off below these collars, resulting in the loss of the foot and catchplate. A similar brooch can be seen in Hattatt, p326, Fig: 185.
