Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead-alloy circular disc brooch. A raised central moulding with three back to back crescents in relief, their ends terminating in a raised dot and is hollowed at the back. The flat surround has decoration comprised of five rings of alternating large and small beads. The brooch is holed in two places at the pin fixing position and the catch-plate. The back is badly corroded. The concentric beaded ring decoration is also found on brooches imitating coins (nummular brooches) and this brooch should be considered a debased version of one of those. It dates to the tenth or eleventh century.
