Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman T-shaped brooch variant. The brooch has an acute right-angled head, the top of the bow has a rectangular panel with three small squares for enamel inserts (now missing), and there is a raised rib below this panel. The remainder of the bow is plain and undecorated. Some of the catchplate survives, as does the spring, but the pin is missing. No direct comparision could be found but this brooch is similar in design to Hattatt's No. 910. It dates to the 2nd century AD.
