A corroded and incomplete cast copper-alloy Colchester brooch dating to the late Iron Age to early Roman period, c. 25-65 AD. This is a one-piece example with rearward facing hook at the top of the head (L.: 6.3mm). This hook retains the external chord of the spring; at one end the spring beyond is lost, along with the pin. On the other side the spring coil is complete and curves through three loops from the point at which it emerges from the head. These coils are covered in orange corrosion product perhaps suggesting that the axis bar was made of iron. Above the spring are two flat w…

A corroded and incomplete cast copper-alloy Colchester one-piece brooch of Late Iron Age or early Roman date (1st century AD).

Below the bar starts the integral spring. The spring has four coils on the left side (head uppermost), the end one of which continues into the ext…
