Description: | Treasure case no: 2009 T320Silver circular broochDate: 13th - 14th CenturyDescription: A silver circular brooch, complete with its pin. The frame survives intact, but at the joint has split open. The frame does not have a pin constriction. The frame is undecorated and has a circular section. The pin is looped around the frame, with an almost closed loop. When flat this would be a flat sheet of silver, which then continues to form the pin proper. Next to the loop there is a raised row of six pellets. The rest of the pin is undecorated and simply tapers to a blunt point. Discussion: In terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996. Dimensions: 42.9mm (length), 40.3mm (width), 2.2mm (thickness)Weight: 6.9g
