Title
Early-medieval brooch: Nummular brooch
Description
English: An incomplete lead alloy brooch of Weetch type 13 and late early-medieval or early medieval date. It is unusual in that the flat-topped boss is decorated only with a single central pellet. The flattened outer rim of the brooch is decorated with two circumferential bands of raised pellets and a single solid linear band below the boss. The boss is hollow on the reverse of the brooch, which retains the catchplate and a single pierced lug for a pin; both of these seem (from the photo) to be parallel to the edge of the brooch.

Weetch Type 13 brooches date from the 11th century.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Oxfordshire
