Description: | A cast copper-alloy toggle of late Iron Age to early Roman date. The toggle is broadly biconical in shape with a sub-conical terminal plate at each end. In the centre at the reverse the toggle has an oval hollow groove and an oval attatchment loop expands from the reverse, incorporating the hollow. The front of the toggle is decorated with three immediately adjacent vertical lozenges, running from one edge of the hollow area on the reverse to the other. The central lozenge is decorated with a number of raised knops (possibly five). It measures 30.53 mm long, 17.53 mm wide, 14.1 mm thick and weighs 19.1 grams. It has a dark green to brown paina with areas of wear.
