Description: | A cast copper-alloy mount or pendant of probable Roman date.The mount is fan-shaped, or possibly pelta-shaped, as a break is found along the end where a stem may have been. The outer convex edge has small incised lines approximately 3mm in length running radially to the edge, with 3-5mm spacing between each line.The metal has a high tin content.In appearance and size and shape, it is also similar to the spatulate terminal of an Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch, but the decoration seems less likely for such an identification.
