1st century BC-1st century AD. A silver plaque with army trophies in low-relief, representing a pastiche of Germano-Roman weapons: two hexagonal shields fitted with central bosses, a quiver decorated by rhomboid patterns, a bow, a pugio dagger, a muscled armour, a helmet, a carnyx trumpet and an oval shield with a central spina. See similar images in Polito, E., Fulgentibus Armis, introduzione allo studio dei fregi d'armi antichi, Roma, 1998, figs.86, 105-107. 11.22 grams, 95mm (3 3/4"). Ex collection of a Surrey, UK, gentleman; acquired on the UK art market; previously on the European art market before 2000. The plaque was probably an applique for a personal object related to a Roman miles or officer, such as a scabbard ornament or part of a camp casket. The weapons represented likely belong to the Augustan Age, commemorating victories over the Germanic or Celtic people. Condition Report Fine condition.
