Description: | Copper alloy disc brooch, umbonate type, 2nd-3rd century in date.It is circular in plan with a central raised conical section which is solid. Around this is a circle of raised dots, surrounded with a raised border, which has a channel around the edge infilled with blue enamel. Not all of the blue enamel remains, it is likely other sections would also have been enamelled but this is now missing. The edge of the brooch has a border of raised sub-triangles, with the points facing inwards. The reverse is flat. The pin and its mechanism are missing but the lugs to hold the mechanism and a small stub of the catchplate remain.
