Description: | Medieval annular brooch with a D-sectioned hoop (straight on inner face) in alloy with dull purplish surface, and strip pin in alloy with green surface. On the underside two opposed notches are set at right angles to the pin. External diameter 22.5mm, internal diameter 17mm. Thickness 3.5mm. The notches suggest that the hoop may have been reused, and the pin replaced. If so then the brooch may have been of "disc-on-pin" type with a separate cross bar set into the notches (Geake 2005, 346-8, fig. 9a), although the hoop is rather smaller than normal for this type. 14th century.
