Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman disc brooch dating to the second century AD. The brooch has a raised central band which would have held in place a decorative insert, probably glass. Outside of this central setting is a moulded band decorated with multiple diagonal lines running circumferentially around the body of the brooch and then gilded. The reverse of the brooch appears silvered. The pin is missing but part of the pin hinge plate and some of the catchplate remain.
