Description: | A copper alloy toggle probably dating from the Late Iron Age or Roman period. The toggle is 18.3mm long, 13.8mm wide and 8.8mm thick. It is dumbbell shaped but with an unusually narrow waist which has a collar. The collar expands on one face to project outwards forming the stem of the attachment loop. This is a sub-triangular flat area at then end of the short stem with an off centre circular hole through. The toggle has a smooth grey green patina, with one area of damage showing bright green corrosion. It has similarities to Dumb Bell toggles, but is smaller and squatter. YORYM-7F03A1 is an example with similarities on the database which is dated from 150 BC to AD 100.
