Description: | Roman copper alloy Colchester derivative (double lug) type brooch. The brooch is in fair condition with a brown patina and weighs 8.85 grams. The brooch is missing its spring, pin and part of its right wing. Its catchplate is intact and is 20mm long and 10mm at its widest. The bow is decorated with a central ridge which widens towards the top and terminates in a raised area over the wings. This ridge incorporates two circular holes designed to accomodate the spring. Unusually the wings are completely flat on the reverse which would force the spring to sit proud. It is 43mm long and 20mm wide. | 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
