Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Incomplete cast copper alloy Roman hinged dolphin-type brooch, missing one wing and the hinge and pin, as well as the foot and catchplate. There is a small fragment of the copper alloy spindle visible within the tubular wing. Some of the surface of the wing remains on the outside and retains two sets of parallel transverse incised lines. The head of the brooch has a central raised moulded square which extends vertically down the bow into a lozenge-shape which tapers into a neck and then expands into a rounded terminal. The terminal appears zoomorphic because a chip has been broken off…

Record ID: CORN-1F5E80
Object type: COIN
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Published
Silver reduced siliqua, of the period AD 360 to 367 (Reece Periods 18-19), possibly of Jovian (c.AD 363-364).
Reverse: VOT/V/MVLT/X within wreath type.
For possible type see RIC VIII, Arles, no. 331.
This reverse type was struck for Jovian, Valentinian I and Valens. Altough the obverse legend appears to read [ ] IOV[ ] it could just be D N V[ ] so the coin might be Valentinianic.

Record ID: CORN-11D2F5
Object type: BIRD FEEDER
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead alloy bird feeder or water trough, D-shaped in plan and section with the flat side designed to fit on the wall or the side of a cage. The base of the feeder is also flat and the body flares upward from the base, with a flanged rim. The object is undecorated, apart from a series of parallel bands, below the expanded rim, and therefore could date from the 16th to the 17th century as decorated examples tend to be earlier in date. The metal surface is worn and cracked with a layer of corrosion and several indentations and gashes from more recent damage.
