Roman Silver Fish Brooch
2nd century A.D.. Plate brooch formed as a fish with broad, gently curved lozengiform body, small lateral fins, chevron tail, D-shaped head with large discoid eye; the body with five rows of crescent punchmarks denoting scales; hinge-plate and catch to the reverse. Cf. Hattatt, R., Iron Age and Roman Brooches, Oxford, 1985, item 616. 4.98 grams, 38 mm (1 1/2 in.).
Property of a gentleman from Vienna; from his private collection formed since 1970.
The brooch is of a type found in Britain, corresponding to Hull's type 223. The fish represented here is likely a salmon. [No Reserve] (For this specific lot, 5% import VAT is applicable on the hammer price.)
