Title
Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) Buckle
Description
English: An incomplete Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) cast copper-alloy buckle (c. 475-c. 600).

The pin is missing.

In plan, the frame is an elongated oval shape and has a narrowed bar. The upper face is bevelled and the lower face is uneven and probably reflects the surface of the mould. The bar is circular in cross-section and corroded in places. On the upper face of the outer edge there is a faint wear mark created by the pin tip. However, this is not visible on the image.

The frame has a shiny green patina with small areas of corrosion and iron staining.


Length: 16.63mm; width: 31.05mm; thickness: 4.77mm; maximum diameter of bar: 2.84mm. Weight: 9.44g.
