Description: | A medieval copper alloy annular brooch. The brooch is circular in plan, with six collared bosses spaced approximately equidistantly around the front. The bosses are devoid of decorative features, but other examples contain enamel or domed glass pellets. The brooch pin is missing, but would have been threaded through the perforation in the frame. Between the six collared bosses there is dotted decoration, consisting of two concentric rings running around the circumference of the frame. The brooch has a dark brown, black hue, measuring 22.20mm external diameter x 15.01mm internal diameter x 4.20mm thick, weighing 2.63g. Other similar finds on the database are WILT-0FD3E7, WMID-104588 and BUC-004453. These are dated to the late Medieval; c.1300-1500AD.
