Title
Medieval buckle
Description
English: An incomplete copper alloy buckle of Meols Type 6, dating to the medieval period, c. AD 1250-1450. 

Part of the buckle frame survives, but the remainder and the pin is missing. The part of the frame that survives is the ornate thickened section of the outer frame, with enough of the more slender frame to imply its D-shaped nature. The frame is decorated with evenly spaced grooves, and the terminals of this area appear more globular than the more rectangular central section.

A similar and more complete example is HAMP-699137, which references another example pictured in Griffiths, Philpott & Egan 2007: Pl. 14 515.

Measurements: 22.9mm length,  7.8mm width, 5.2mm thickness, weight 4.86g.
