Ave!
Harness, Pendent, Hourglass-shaped, c. Mid-Late 1st Cent, Scarce!
Copper alloy; 59mm / 6.2gm
Con/ Connector loop broken, otherwise, As Cast; sharp example with a green and brown patina.
Description/ As seen in the photo (read below), a pair of incised circles about the rivet holes with zero traces of either solder or Roman glue. Interesting...!
Ref/ Vindonissa Catalog #1701. Rare and not found in any common resources.
Seller's Note/ Perhaps oddly, or not, none the the line drawings in the Vindonissa Catalog show any domes at all; only the incised circles about the holes. Such a lack could be possibly explained as when the archaeologists were digging the stable quarters of the fort, all that remained were
discarded and or broken tack parts? Rare even in this broken condition, trust me, kids.
