Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy Roman Headstud brooch dating from 75-175 AD. Above the head there is a circular loop, which is now broken. Behind the head there is a tubular hinged mechanism for holding the pin. The hinge mechanism and the pin no longer survive. There is a headstud on the upper part of the bow, with a raised ring and dot motif. Below this the bow is broken, resulting in the loss of the catchplate. A similar brooch can be seen in Hattatt, p332, Fig: 191.
