Description: | A complete Medieval cast copper-alloy annular brooch (c. 1250-c. 1400). The frame is circular in plan and oval in cross-section. It has an outer diameter of 20.2mm, a width of 2.2mm and a thickness of 1.9mm. The frame to one side of the pin is of twisted cable pattern and the other side of the frame is plain. There is a constriction (2.5mm in width) for the tapering pin which is 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. The pin, 19.6mm in length, has a sub-circular loop that almost completely encloses the constriction. Outer diameter: 20.2mm; width of frame: 2.2mm; thickness of frame: 1.9mm. Weight: 2.14g. This brooch is corroded and in poor condition. A patina has not survived. A similar brooch has been published (Egan and Pritchard: 1991: 249, fig. 160, ref: 1310).
