Metallic rattle front passenger wheel

[ridz19]

Hi all, just looking for some advice on what the cause of a rattle could be.

At low speed ( under 15mph) there is a metallic rattle from the front passenger wheel, it sounds like coins in a slow spin washing machine.

I jacked the car up and the wheel spins OK, slight scuffing from what I suspect are the brake pads catching but nothing else of note and I couldn't see anything else out of place, although I'm not really experienced in troubleshooting cars.

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Could be the metal guard behind the disc, it's fairly thin and would bend easily.

Cheers, I'll have look in the morning to see if it could be that.

I forgot to mention that above 15mph I can't hear the rattle, but the wind hitting that thin metal could keep it far enough away so it doesn't rattle.

Last year I had something similar on the rear driverside wheel. It turned out to be a smallpiece of gravel that had managed to get between the disc and the guard. At slow speeds it would tumble around. As you went quicker, it would wedge somewhere until you went over a bump. It took me a few attempts at finding it because at a standstill and even with the wheel off, it wasn't that obvious

Just to let people know what the issue was. It was a stone that became lodged in the disc. By the size of it I have no idea how it got into the air gap into the middle of the disc,just unfortunate. Wheel off,caliper off,bit of digging by the mechanic I go to and he got it out. Excellent service by the garage at short notice. If anyone needs a good mechanic dundee way feel free to ask.

Edited just to say thanks for the suggestions.
