Description: | Copper alloyBrooch. Trumpet Brooch Variant, with trumpet head with a robust hook behind it, and a billeted medial longitudinal ridge extending from head to a collared mid bow moulding. Above this, the bow is expanded with opposed solid triangular projections terminating in rounded knops. Below the collar, a fantail bears the stub of an unpierced catch plate on its back. The plate of the fantail bears a medial groove which bifurcates with branches heading for its corners (lost); these, and perhaps the plate itself, appear likely to have retained enamel, though no trace of colorant now remains. Suggested date: Early Roman, 80-150.Length: 41.8mm, Width (central projections): 20.6mm, Thickness (bow below head): 7.5mm, Weight: 15.85gms.
