Description: | A fragment of a cast copper-alloy Roman brooch of Colchester Two-piece type, c. 1st century AD. All that remains are part of the wings and part of the top of the bow. A cast double lug is visible towards the rear of the brooch head. The bow has a raised rib running down its centre. The metal of the brooch is green in colour and highly corroded. Although it has suffered quite alot of damage and not much is left it must still have been a tiny brooch when whole. The brooch fragment measures 16.5 mm long, 14.93 mm wide, 2.52 mm thick and weighs 1.4 grams.
