Description: | Roman copper alloy zoomorphic brooch, 14.53 mm long, 8.04 mm wide, and 5.33 mm thick. The object is in a fair condition and weighs 0.67 grms. It is a plate brooch representing the back-end of a dog. The dog, pointing right, is missing its head, its ear and fore leg but retains part of its back leg, whose inclination suggests movement, and its tail. The body contains one incomplete empty enamel cell which is comma shaped. On the flat reverse side, the semi circular lug is present and retains part of a coiled iron pin.
