Description: | A copper alloy knob probably from a cruciform brooch dating from the 6th century. In plan the knob has a D shaped terminal, the straight side defined by a groove, and then a rectangular collar. In section it is half round, and the reverse is hollow. There is a hole for the pin bar, but the area is obscured by corrosion. The corroded iron pin bar is present in the hollow undersaid of the knob, and projects through a hole in the terminal end. There is a slot across the attachment end. The knob has a grey green patina.
