Description: | A worn and incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman disc brooch. The brooch is now sub-circular in plan having suffered abrading and losses to its circumference. Its upper face features four raised concentric rings: two outer rings within which a shallower ring and a central ring around a small depression. Flush to the inner edge of the outer ring is incised wavy line decoration. The catchplate on the reverse has only one lug fully extant: the pin lug has been broken through and the upper part lost, and pin is missing. The reverse features traces of white metal. This brooch is very similar to an example found in the vicinity and recorded on this database, ref.
