Title: Item for I.D. Please... Post by: dragonsbreath(Paul) on February 06, 2012, 11:28:01 AM The following item was found several years ago in Dorset on a site that has provided
good finds from Roman era on wards. The item in question has divided opinion among the "experts" ranging from a Georgian rein guide to a handle from a Roman artifact. Its a copper/bronze alloy with an iron tang embedded in ts base. The design is of punched rosette motifs of a crescent design approx. 25 x 35 mm The stem terminates in a sub rectangular flange which holds the remains of an embedded iron tang Would love to put this one to bed so any ideas folks? |
