Full Description

A small circular brooch was washed out of the gravel of a mountain stream near Dorrisduan shooting-lodge. It is made of copper, and is of the rudest workmanship, and measures 2 inches in outer diameter and 1 1/4 inches inside diameter, the breadth of the rim being 3/8 of an inch. On one side it is covered with zigzag ornament, which can only be seen with the aid of a glass, owing to the amount of corrosion it has suffered.
T Wallace 1897.
