Description: | A copper-alloy annular brooch of 13th to 15th century AD date (R. Hattatt; 2000; pp. 382).
The frame consists of a crudely-made flattened copper-alloy ring with an irregular inner edge. The original pin is missing; the replacement has been made from a very fine wire dress pin, with a small globular head, which has been wound around the frame. Such pins have been found in large quantities in 14th and 15th century contexts in London (G. Egan and F. Pritchard; 1991; pp. 297).
The object measures 19.6mm in diameter, 3.4mm thick and weighs 2.22g. | 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: | 1200
