A complete Post Medieval silver annular brooch. The brooch is made up of a slightly convex silver sheet with striated decoration only around the base of the pin. On the back, maker's mark MC. The diameter is 22.5mm, the thickness is 3.1mm and the weight is 2.91g. Without the mark one might be tempted to think this artefact late medieval, but the form of the mark suggests a 16th Century date or later, though the mark is not recorded in Pickford (ed) of Jackson for this century.

On the reverse is the remains of a rectangular loop which would have been used as an attachment method. It has broken so that only the two uprights remain. In the Post Medieval period, these loops were used instead of pins on some forms of brooch.

Pickford, 1989, p. 146 with recorded use for 1691-2. This would fit the dating of the buckle type but this does not mean the buckle is of this date, just roughly, and it is not possible to securely date it to pre 1707 and as such it falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996.

Silver sixpence of William III (1696) made into a pendant and later a brooch. The original silver sixpence is in slightly worn condition. At the crown there is a small deposit of solder visible on both the obverse and reverse of the coin. This suggests that the solder fills a small hole that had previously served to suspend the coin around the owners neck as a pendant. At the same time that the suspension hole was filled, a hinged pin and loop were soldered to the reverse of the coin to convert it into a brooch. The pin is now missing. The style of hinge suggests that the conversion to…

An incomplete cast copper alloy plate brooch. The brooch is heavily corroded and damaged. It is therefore difficult to say for certain how old this brooch is. It is possibly post-medieval in date but a Roman plate (2nd century) can not be ruled out. The brooch is roughly circular in shape, though heavily corroded and damaged. No decoration can be seen on the front surface. The reverse still houses the double lug and a small square catchplate. It is the widely spaced double lug which puts a question mark over the Roman date, as they were normally closer together in the Roman period…
