Roman copper alloy mirror
Fragment of a mirror with on one side the remains of approximately five countersunk holes as a border decoration, lying just over and outside a band of finely-turned concentric circles. Only a small badly damaged section of the edge survives. The other side is badly decayed and no details of decoration can be seen. The fragment belongs to the disc of a hand mirror (Group K) of the most common and easily recognised type (Lloyd-Morgan 1981, 49-56).
