Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy toggle, dating from the 1st century BC to the 1st century AD. The toggle survives in an excellent condition. The object has been cast in one piece.
The toggle is cylindrical with flaring terminals. The object is solid. The toggle has a slightly expanded centre, either side of which then narrows before flaring at the ends. The terminals are flat.
On the centre of the toggle the remains of an attachment loop can be seen. The break is very worn and corroded.
The metal is pitted and is a mid brownish-green colour. | 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: | -150
