Title
Medieval buckle
Description
English: An incomplete medieval to post medieval copper alloy annular buckle dating from 1350-1650, missing the pin. The frame is oval shaped with a central pin bar, the inside of the frame is bevelled. The frame is angled, and does not lie flat. On one edge of the the outer frame is an small notch, this is possibly for the pin to sit in. The pin bar is narrowed and sub triangular in cross section. Along the edge of the frame beside the pin bar there are indentations, these are irregular and look like damage to the buckle. The buckle is a dark green colour, with traces of black lacquer. There are scratches on the top side of the buckle frame, possibly this is decoration. The buckle measures 42.8mm in length, 42.5mm in width and weighs 14.86g.

The buckle is similar to one in Whitehead 1996, 44, 253.
