Description: | An incomplete copper alloy Roman lugged disc plate brooch dating t 100-200 AD. Only the pin is missing. A hinged pin would have been attached to a loop on the back of the disc. Around the disc is a plate with a deeply notched, scalloped edge and ring and dot decoration. The disc is raised forward from this plate, so that there is a circular hollow at the back. There is a raised metal rim forming the edge of the disc and a second, concentric division at the centre, in the outer band formed by these are traces of blue enamel. The centre is also recessed for enamel. The hinge point and catchplate are on the back of the brooched affixed to the outer plate. Dimensions: 26.23 mm x 23.14 mm x 4.86 mm, weight: 6.21g.
