Description: | Copper alloy brooch fragment, Hattatt's "Crescent type Aesica". Upper half only, missing spring/pin and abraded wings and rear hook. The wings have a diagonal groove. The top of the bow has a central rib, joining the rear hook, with a centre groove along it. The stub of the upper bow is very corroded but has single grooves flanking the rib. Behind this the flat back plate has a narrow centre stub (junction with the upper bow) and an applied D-section crescent with angled incised line decoration. Surviving length 26mm, surviving width 25mm. This example is larger than the norm, similar to Hattatt 289A. The type is almost certainly East Anglian. | 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
