The reverse of the brooch is undecorated, but there is a central ridge across the horizontal axis. The catchplate and the pierced lug have been arranged longitudinally on the reverse of the brooch. Both survive intact. The pin, which is a coiled wire type survives intact. This type of brooch dates from the 1st - 2nd century AD.
