Description: | A Roman copper alloy plate object, dating 3rd-4th century. The object is sub-rectangular and flat with a moulded decoration on one side. The decoration consists of a large central ring and dot motif with two annulets surrounding. There would likely have been annulets around the entire circumference of the central motif, though these are now missing. The object has been broken along many edges, with ware along the breaks. Similar designs can be seen on seal boxes and nail cleaners recorded on the PAS database, which often date to the late Roman period, cf. WILT-5D7062 (nail cleaner) and NMS-A4C401 (seal box).Dimensions: length: 13.11 mm; width: 9.16 mm; thickness: 2.20 mm; weight: 1.27g.
