Title
Anglo-Scandinavian lead disc brooch
Description
English: An elaborate and well preserved Anglo-Scandinavian nummular brooch made out of lead. The brooch is circular, flat, and decorated around the perimeter with six bands of small pellets. The centre of the brooch is decorated with two lines diving the face into a quatrefoil. In the middle of each angle is a large sub-rectangular pellet. In the corner of each angle is a pellet-in-ring. The rest of the field is filled with smaller circular pellets. A pin-lug and catch-plate are located on the reverse. The pin-lug is of traditional form for this type of brooch, having two rounded lugs housing an iron pin. The pin is now missing, but iron corrosion is noted between the lugs.

This brooch is almost identical to one from South Ferriby (Leahy, K. 2007 The Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Lindsey, Stroud, p. 181, fig. 80.4), and another from Folkingham recorded on this database.
