Description: | Corroded remains of a Colchester one-piece brooch made from copper alloy. It has tiny stubs of rectangular wings, a forward-facing hook worn to a tiny curved spike, the remains of the pin as another spike, and a very corroded circular-section bow curving down to a point. The remains of a catchplate can be seen as a thin fin on the reverse of the foot. The metal is a rough brown. Late Iron Age or early Roman, c. 20-60 AD. 41 mm long. 2.15g.
