Description: | Copper alloyPossible Brooch fragment. Possibly a Plate Brooch fragment. Cast disc with three concentric ridges which define sunken fields between them; these would be apt to retain enamel though no trace of colorant remains. Opposed lugs indicate the further extent of the object; it is less certain whether further projections have been lost from either side, though one edge appears lightly bent. This is considered to possibly be part of a plate brooch, though it may alternatively be a decorative boss from a variety of bow and fantail brooch or, given a slight concavity at the back, even the bezel from a finger ring with a narrow band. Suggested date: Probably Early Roman, 100-200.Length: 23.9mm, Diameter (disc): 15.3mm, Thickness: 2.48gms, Weight: 2.89gms
