Mayadigger:
Ave!
Copper alloy; 40mm/79.5mm
Just sharing for your edification
Best to all,

Jay GT4:
Oh, wow. What type of fibula, can you tell?
Mayadigger:
Ave Jay!
Most likely, a type of Semicircular Headed knee brooch, ca. 2nd Cent. AD
The indent seen lower in the first photo is also semicircular and 7mm in depth.
I forgot to mention that this is only one half of the mold. LOL!
Best,
Kevin
SC:
Probably a square-body version like these, but with a plate at the head. The square body is typically Germanic but rarely has a head-plate.
