Digital Object 1463
Description:
A hollow, truncated cone-shaped, cast gold nose clip with an open side segment and a narrow central body. Its only decoration is a thickening that runs along the two edges of the piece. It has some spherical grains on the ridge of the larger base that look more like burring from the smelting process rather than an intentional feature. Conte Metallurgical Group.
