Description: | Photgraphs only seen of a complete copper alloy brooch of Thealby type (a Headstud variant which lacks the headstud). The pin is hinged in cast lugs. The head loop is also integral, with a triple rib moulding below the loop, the centre rib of which is hatched. The wings are nearly flat with vertical ribs. The bow is square or rectangular in section and slightly tapered, with a transverse triple moulding at the foot, again with hatching on the centre rib. Dimensions unknown as there is no scale in the photos. The type is generally northern; Hattatt no 1527 has similarities with this example. Dating broadly 2nd century? | 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: | 100
