Title
BUCKLE
Description
English:

An incomplete medieval cast copper-alloy single looped sub-rectangular buckle, dating to the period AD 1500-1650. The buckle is 29.31mm in length and 25.51mm in width. It is 6.47mm thick and weighs 7.42g. The patina is relatively rough, the colour is different shades of green and brown. The front seems to have been silvered or tinned. The pin of the buckle is missing. A big block of corrosion can be found where the pin used to be, indicating that it was made of iron.





The front of the buckle is rounded and notched and has a slot where the pin would have rested. Its thickest point is 9.86mm. The bar is narrowed and recessed. It measures 17.5mm in length and 2.93mm in width.

This buckle is similar to no.157 on p.29 in Ross Whitehead's Buckles (2003).
