Title
A single view of a Medieval buckle.
Description
English: The object is a rectangular framed single looped buckle frame made from cast copper alloy. Egan and Pritchard illustrate a similar example, No. 438. These buckles date to the later 14th century. 

 The buckle is a rectangular in plan. The sides are slightly convex with a ridge at each corner. The loop edge is wider than the sides and has a wide central groove which is bordered by a fine groove. There is another fine groove at wither terminal of this edge. On the reverse this edge of the loop is also decorated with two grooves forming a ‘V’ shape with a linear groove either side. The strap bar is narrowed. The pin is missing. The surface of the buckle frame has a dark green/grey coloured matte patina. There are traces of iron corrosion within some of the loops grooves. The frame also has patches of red copper corrosion.
The buckle weighs 3.25g and measures 17.9mm long and 18.8mm wide.
