Description: | The body of the brooch is circular with a small protruding incomplete circular loop on the edge, and on the opposite edge is moulded knop. The upper surface of the body is slightly roughened and has smear marks suggesting that the surface was originally covered, possibly with enamel. The edges of the body are heavily abraded. On the reverse of the knop and continuing to the reverse of the body is a vertical trapezoidal shaped lug whose top edge is curled creating a catchplate. Opposite the catchplate are two vertical semi-circular lugs which each have a circular hole with a copper alloy bar connecting the two. Between the lugs is a fragment of a hinge/pin. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
