Description: | Roman copper alloy key handle fragment, 38mm long, 24mm wide and 10mm thick with a weight of 19.02grams. The object forms what would have been the central part of a decorative handle. It is roughly rectangular in form and cross section and consists of a sub circular lower section, from the top (as viewed) of which emerges two shafts with outwards facing triangular terminals. Near the base of these shafts is a further small projection also facing outwards. These when complete would have formed a trefoil loop motif forming the key handle.See NLM-BEC72A SUR-7DE552 for comparable objects.
