A cast copper alloy pendant probably dating from the Bronze Age to the Roman period, (2500 BC-AD 410). The object is crescent shaped in plan from the centre of which projects a rectangular tab which expands to form a perforated oval attachment loop. One end of the crescent is rounded, possibly due to a break during antiquity. The object is flat. The outer face is decorated with a series of punched dots around the edge, and a central line of nine punched dots below the perforation with five to six punched dots running diagonally off the central line. The perforation measures 10.24mm in…

Report to H.M. Coroner Potential Treasure of possible Bronze Age pendant from Charminster, Dorset Treasure case: 2006 T380 Circumstances of discovery Found in September 2004 while using a metal detector; it was 'a few inches deep' in a field of stubble. Description A cigar-shaped strip of gold with sub-square terminals. The two long sides are asymmetric, one being more bowed than the other, but this may be due to a stronger buckle affecting the latter.

An incomplete copper-alloy artefact of uncertain date and function. The object has a straight 'arm' of flattened-oval section, broken at one end, the other end extending into a wider, roughly circular, 'loop'. Dimensions: 37.3mm long, 12.7mm wide (including loop), 3.6mm thick. Weight: 5.41g. The patination and form of this piece are consistent with a Bronze Age to Iron Age date. It is suggested that it may be part of a pendant.

Small piece of Lakeland green slate that has had a hole drilled near the centre of the top edge. The hole is now incomplete and probably broke during manufacture as the slate is only crudely dressed. The marks from the boring show that the hole was an 'hourglass' hole. It may have been intended as one of a series of drilled objects to be used on a necklace, bracelet or similar. Date is uncertain (c2500BC-c800BC) but Castlerigg circle is in the vicinity so a Bronze Age date seems likely. Measures 18.5x12.5x4mm. Weighs 1.2 grms.

TREASURE CASE 2005 T421 A rare gold pendant, dating to the Midle Bronze Age. Biconical pendant made using narrow, c-sectioned gold strip wound spirally. The piece tapers to each end, having its maximum diameter across the mid-section. One end is broken off (missing) and there is slight compression at this end. An eyelet for suspension is placed centrally at the thickest part and this appears to be of the same c-sectioned strip. The hollow pendant was plugged with dirt at the time of inspection. Maximum surviving length 24mm; thickness at mid-section 6mm; weight 1.75 grams. Composition…
