Title
Late Medieval or Post Medieval buckle frame
Description
English: Late Medieval or Post Medieval cast copper-alloy double-loop rectangular buckle frame missing the pin. One loop is complete while the other is missing a corner to old breaks. The strap bar is narrowed. The top, bottom and outer sides are rectangular in section. Along the outer edge of the outer side of the complete loop are short, regularly spaced incised lines. The corners of the this edge are broken. There may have been similar lines on the incomplete loop, now obscured by corrosion. It is 41.4mm long and 38.9mm wide, 2.5mm thick and weighs 6.46 grams.

Whitehead (2003:78) illustrates a very similar example, no.478, with a bevelled inner edge, not clear on this example, which he dates to c. AD 1450-1600.
