Description: | Silvered or tinned copper alloy Roman T-shaped brooch. The brooch has semi-circular wings in cross-section containing a copper alloy spring that has nine turns to it. The spring has an external chord that passes through a small loop at the top in the centre of the wings. The bow is comma shaped in plan and triangular in cross-section. There is a pronounced rope-like rib running down the centre of the brooch with a deep concave channel to either side. At the top of the bow is a tall linear crest sitting on a slightly widened plate. The bow tapers to a pointed foot. The catchplate is complete and openwork, having a circular and a triangular opening. The pin is incomplete. | 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: | 60
