Cast copper alloy fragment of a Roman trumpet brooch dating to c.75-175 AD. Only the head and the upper half of the bow remains, the pin and its mechanism, whether spring or hinge are missing and the bow has broken just at the central acanthus style moulding. The trumpet shaped head is slightly broken and uneven, on the reverse is it hollow and the base of a hook, to hold the pin and its mechanism is still present. The bow has a circular cross section and widens at the acanthus style moulding which is a very crude version.

The wire also runs below the spring, connected to both ends. The head almost immediately narrows away from the spring, which extends above the head.
