Description: | Roman Brooch: Incomplete cast copper alloy bow and foot of a Roman trumpet brooch. The trumpet head of the brooch is missing but the area of raised moulding which forms the waist of these brooches survives. The moudling in this example consists of three semi-circular raised ridges which are plain in design and, of which, the central one is most upstanding. Below these ridges the bow is plain and tapers to the foot which has a single rounded plain knop as a finial. The remains of the plain triangular catchplate survive on the reverse. The brooch has a mid green-brown patine but has notable surface pitting.Brooches of this type are typically dated AD. 75-175.
