Probably lead alloy forgery based on an inscribed silver unit of the Corieltauvi, possibly imitating ABC 1896 'Vepo ring silver half unit', though the poor definition of the horse in particular is more akin to the discombobulated state of the beast appearing on gold staters; the size, thickness and weight also have more in common with the gold Iron Age coins than the silver. The inscribed silver coinage would bear a date of Haselgrove period 3 phase 8, AD 10-40, but its forgery might rather relate to the period 1990-2010. Another dubious object, a cruciform brooch (NLM-7C9CE4), was re…

Copper alloy brooch fragment. Cast cruciform brooch fragment, comprising the lowest part of the bow, a collared moulding, a horse head foot with prominent eyebrows and eyes, and a trilobate or shamrock-leaf terminal which springs in two halves from the lower part of the horse head.

Copper alloy coin. Paul Cannon kindly identifies this as a coin of the East India Company, and comments as follows: 'Despite its poor preservation I am sure that this is a very worn one pice coin of the Bengal Presidency (East India Company) and was minted in Calcutta. Coins of this type were struck (in large numbers) in 1809, 1817, 1829 & 1831. They only differ in small variations of size and weight. Each has the frozen regal year 37 ie '٣٧' and the name Alam Shah II who died in 1806. The image on the left contains the recognisable inscription. Compare withhttp://www.zeno.ru/showph…
