Description: | An incomplete Roman copper-alloy oval flat disc brooch (AD 100-200). The pin is missing. There is some evidence of silvering on the surface.The flat oval plate is divided into two zones by a reserved metal ridge concentric with the outer rim. The central oval cell was probably host to a glass or enamel inset, now missing. At the rear there are stubs of a pin lug and catch-plate.See, Bayley & Butcher 2004: Roman Brooches in Britain: A Technological and Typological Study based on the Richborough Collection, 134, fig. 100, ref: 386.
