Description: | A copper alloy Roman brooch, T-shape but with a Colchester derivative mechanism. The bow tapers to a narrow foot with the remains of a triangular catchplate. The upper part of the bow has two incised vertical grooves above a band of two horizontal grooves. The lug to accommodate the spring appears to be formed from a single strip. The wings are open on the reverse, with enclosed semi-circular terminals and two incised lines on the terminals. A spring remains in situ with six or seven turns on each side. The pin is missing. | 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: | 50
