Description: | Incomplete and abraded Roman copper alloy Colchester Derivative Hinged brooch, the pin, all of one wing, the outer end of the other, the lower part of the bow and all of the catchplate missing. The axis bar is iron. Two vertical grooves are visible on the wing. The round-sectioned bow is decorated with a largely vanished median rib between grooves. Grooves along both edges change direction to meet the top of the rib. This arrangement gives "the impression of a concave lozenge lying across the head of the bow" (Mackreth 2011, 63, pl. 40, no. 947). Extant length 19.5mm. c.55 - c.80 Field JW9 | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
