A cast copper-alloy trumpet brooch of the early Roman period, c. AD 75-200.
Only the head of the brooch remains with a cast integral lug and missing headloop, for which the base is still visible. The lug retains the spring of the pin, consisting of eight coils around a central axel. The head has broken from the bow as it emerges from the head. The object has an even patina, but is notable for its size, being at the larger end of the spectrum for this type of brooch.
