Description: | Possibly Romano-British unidentified object: a globular oval-sectioned cast copper alloy bead object with remains of three embedded iron rods at oblique angles. On one face a single rod, diameter 8mm is set in a slanting collar, on the other one rod, diameter 5.5mm and a blind hole of the same diameter containing only traces of iron. Because of their convergent alignment the two holes meet at their bases, and at their tops there is a collar-like projection between them, 16 and 18mm across and 15mm high. The dull green patination, now partly removed, gives the copper alloy a Roman appearance.
