<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 434141, member: 5833"]Think the tricky bit is that it has been written as Æt. The orientation of the inscription interests me. Most women are right handed; most right handed persons would wear this brooch the other way up. A left handed or inattentive engraver, perhaps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
