Description: | A copper-alloy headstud brooch dating to the early Roman period. The brooch has flat rectangular wings with a cylindrical cover on the reverse containing an axis bar for a hinged pin. The pin is missing. The wings are vertically ribbed. The bow is comma shaped in plan, rectangular in cross-section and tapers to the foot. There is an incomplete crest at the top of the bow and a lozenge shaped boss below this. The boss contains a pellet with what looks like a ring of degraded blue enamel around it. The catchplate is incomplete.
