Treasure case 2010 T277: Not Treasure, returned to finder A small incomplete gold ingot of uncertain date. The object is sub-rectangular in shape, though crudely formed. It is rounded at one end, with a rough break at the other. It survives in fairly good condition apart from a few scratch marks on each face. B ecause of its undiagnostic nature, the find cannot be securely dated to pre-1710 and as such falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.

A small fragment of copper-alloy, possibly from an axe or similar implement. The fragment is wedge shaped, with a sharp, rounded edge on one side and straight, rough, blunt edges on all other sides, suggesting that it has indeed broken away from a larger object, which may well have been an axe. However, beyond such suggestions, its small size makes it impossible to draw any definite conclusions about what this object may have been and to what period it dates from.

Part of an unidentified iron (coated with copper alloy) object. It consists of a long bar, circular in profile, which goes upwards slightly at the very tip before culminating in a teardrop section, which extends downwards at a slight angle. Through this section is a very regular circular hole. The upper half of the other end appears to have attached to something else. Close to this break an integral, roughly semi-circular, loop extends downwards. The metal is brownish-red in colour with a few small patches of greenish copper alloy in places on the surface. A similar object can also …

Unidentified iron object. The small object is very similar to an early Roman brooch in form, with a 'T' shaped head, and curved body. However, the foot is formed where the end of the object is rolled inwards, almost in a spiral. There is no sign of a catchplate or similar. This, and the fact that the object is made from iron, suggest that it is unlikely to be a brooch of this date, despite the other similarities. However, due to heavy errosion it is difficult to see any features of the object apart from its basic form, making it difficult to identify it further. Length: 33.1mm, Wid…
