Description: | Enamelled cast copper alloy Roman disc brooch dating from the 2nd/early 3rd century AD. It is complete except for the pin and part of the hinge mechanism and foot which are missing. The casting is still mostly intact, but much of the enamel is missing. The brooch was decorated with two concentric enamelled circles and a central cell. The colour of the enamel in the centre and inner ring must remain uncertain as none of the enamel remains. The outer ring was decorated with dark blue enamel.
