The frame of the brooch is a flat strip which narrows to a point where the missing pin was fitted. Around the frame was once a series of probably four separately-applied rounded knops; only two now survive. The knops are each decorated with punched circles, now very worn. Dimensions: Weight: 2.39g Date: Medieval, 13th or 14th century Discussion: This item is more than 300 years old and composed of more than 10% precious metal. It therefore should be considered Treasure under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996. David Williams
