Copper alloy ring brooch and pin. The ring has a 4.3mm diameter circular section with a groove around its inner circumference suggesting that it was made from folded sheet metal. The pin is of the simple wrap-around type and is grooved towards its point which was hammered to produce a taper. What appears to be the front face of the ring is plain although there are some transverse indentations on the back.
