Description: | A medieval silver-gilt annular brooch. The frame, cut from flat metal, engraved with four heraldic shields placed equidistantly, with a series of crosses between each shield. The pin survives, looped around a constriction, although the end is broken off. Non-destructive X-ray fluorescence analysis of the surface of the mercury gilt brooch indicated a silver content of approximately 96%.
