Description: | A cast copper alloy incomplete toggle dating from the late Iron Age to the early Roman period, (cf. Jackson 1995: 40, no. 87). The head of the toggle is sub-cylindrical and is circular in cross-section. A wide groove also marks each end of this central band, separating it from the two end segments. One end of the toggle is rounded while the opposite end is flat with a moulded collar. Projecting at a right angle from the central section of the object is a circular attachment loop. The loop has an internal diameter of 6.79mm and an external diameter of 15.96mm. The loop is oval in cross-section and is integral to the head of the toggle. The object has a smooth dark brown patina and is corroded in patches. A large amount of corrosion remains attached to one side of the object.
