Title
late early Medieval lead alloy brooch
Description
English: Late Early Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) lead alloy disc brooch, 38mm long, 28mm wide and 11mm thick. The brooch is in fair condition, with a portion missing and weighs 20.04grams. The brooch is circular and is decorated with five bands of concentric dotted lines forming a border around a central field of small raised dots, apparently randomly placed. The reverse contains a rectangular shaped, curved catchplate and a double semi-circular lug.

The brooch is of a form developed from late Saxon Nummular brooches, which sometimes had coins as a central motif.
