Description: | An incomplete Roman (AD 50-150) copper alloy Colchester Derivative, possibly T-shaped, brooch missing hinge mechanism, part of the bow, the catchplate, and the pin. The brooch measures 31.22mm in length and weighs 10.60grams.The tubular wingspan is 36.07mm, the wings are decorated with two knops on each wing, each with incised transverse lines, and small ridges in between. To the reverse is a slot which held the pin. Each wing is roughly 5.55mm in diameter and are sealed with corrosion.The bow, 10.42mm at the widest, is D-shaped in cross-section and extends from the top of the wings, tapering towards a broken terminus 4.08mm wide. The bow is decorated with two vertical grooves and three undecorated vertical ridges, two of which stop halfway down the bow. The middle ridge seems to flatten down due to wear.cf. WILT-3A9054
