Description: | Cast copper alloy plate brooch dating to the mid 1st century AD. The object is lozenge shaped in plan with four projecting lugs. It has a domed centre which is undecorated. The lugs are stepped and decorated with grooves. The decoration is unclear due to corrosion. Two integral lugs project from the reverse of the object which would have formed a small catchplate and the lug for the hinged pin. Both are damaged and worn. The object has a dark green patina and is in poor condition. A similar example is no. 341, p122, Bayley and Butcher (2004).
