A cast copper-alloy object, possibly a simple brooch frame of Medieval date. It is annular in form and D-shaped in section with flat back and rounded front face. To one side is a slight U-shaped constriction that has possible traces of iron corrosion, perhaps a constriction for a pin. The entire object measures 17.11mm in diameter, 2.18mm in thickness, and 1.21g in weight. This is probably a simple annular brooch frame that is likely to date to the Medieval period, c.13th-15th centuries AD.
