Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy brooch. Disc brooch. A plain cast disc with the stubs of a hinged pin lug and a folded U-shaped catch-plate. The front is entirely plain except for a single ring and dot of diameter 3mm close to the edge. It may be that a Roman brooch or back plate has been reused; however, the plate is slightly larger than the simpler forms of disc brooch illustrated by Mackreth (2011), so an imitation of the form may rather explain this piece. However, it is conventionally believed that Anglo-Saxon brooches were usually provided with iron pins, and there is no sign of iron staining on t…

Copper alloy and Iron, painted or oiled
Late Roman Crossbow Brooch fragment. Cast onion knop surmounting a deep collar with billeted edges. Beyond the collar the object acquires an oval section with two oval projections, presumably the start of a series. Two prongs of iron wire of thickness 1.3mm are bedded in the core of this stem. Erica Darch kindly identifies this as a part of a Crossbow Brooch, a type associated with the later Roman military; in this correcting an identification as a knife pommel. She cites SF-A65EF0 as a similar fragment and SUR-56D6F6 as a complete example.…

Object type: SEAL MATRIX
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Copper alloy seal matrix, lentoid or vesica-shaped (pointed oval), with a raised rib and suspension lug on the reverse. The central motif is an engraved device of a winged and maned quadruped walking right when the pierced lug on the reverse is held to the left, but rampant when it is held the conventional way up with the lug to the top. On the impression the animal appears to have a bird's head and so may be a gryphon, a mythical beast symbolising martial virtues.
The inscription is not easy to read. Held with the lug to the left, it appears to read (below the motif) [?I]NRI DEO…

County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead net sinker. Tubular sinker, made from a rolled rectangle of cast lead sheet of thickness 2.2mm with a clenched seam, and with a central aperture of diameter 4mm. Patinated overall.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead weight. Cast sub-rectangular weight. The upper surface bears a probably moulded lipped edge, and a number of small round punch-marks of diameter 1mm are scattered randomly across it. The border has subsequently been enhanced by a thin inscribed line, which continues as an un-ruled X extending corner to corner. Patinated overall. The mass suggests this may be a Roman weight representing eight drachmae (3.41gm) or one uncia (27.3gm), though the Roman system continued in use into Anglo-Saxon times. A weight such as this would be used with a set of balancing scales. Suggested date: R…

Object type: COIN
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
A copper alloy nummus of Constantine I (AD 306-37), dating to c. AD 328 (Reece Period 16), D N CONSTANTINI MAX AVG, VOT XXX in wreath. Mint of Arles. Firstly, this is apparently the first recorded use of this reverse type at Arles, the nearest mints using the type being Ticinum and Rome. Secondly, the mintmark - // SF●ARP is unpublished. cf. RIC VII p. 268; the coin appears to fall between the S F//ARLP and S F//CONST issues. It does suggest that Arles was not renamed Constantia until 329 and that this was the last issue before the mint changed its name.
