The under dish is gilding metal that is in fact more of a bronze than a brass then that was covered by a hand worked piece of 7 thou' silver sheet, where the oak leaf crown is all hand done no punches what ever for with thin metal there is no need to punch.
The figure in the centre was also hand made from 7 thou' sheet Gold in the form of the Emperor Titus Flavius with the oak leaf crown being 22 ct Gold plated, this particular oak leaf crown is an award that we find was given to Centurians.
