Description: | Roman (50-80AD) cast copper alloy Colchester derivative brooch. The wings are curved to cover the now missing spring mechanism. There is a broken rear hook on the head which would have secured the external chord of the spring. There are vertical ridges moulded on the wings. The bow has a 'D' shaped cross section. The bow is very worn, however it appears to have a slightly pronounced rib. The wings are 16.59mm long, the brooch is 24.39mm long and weighs 3.55 grams.
