Description: | A copper alloy disc 17.3mm in diameter bearing two incised concentric circles around a centred sunk circular indentation. On the reverse, which shows a rough cast surface, there is a large integral perforated lug of similar metal, standing 10.5mm high from the disc with a hole 4mm in diameter.
Roman parallels for such objects are shown by Jurgen Oldenstein in his Catalogue of German-Roman auxiliary accessories, with particularly similar examples from Saalburg and Weissenburg, these also showing the large integral cast perforated lug and the incised concentric circles on the disc (Oldenstein 1976 258-259, nos 571-573). | 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
