Title
Medieval buckle
Description
English: A copper-alloy single loop buckle frame dating to the Medieval period, c. AD 1200-1400.

The buckle frame is trapezoidal and sub-rectangular in cross section with narrowed and recessed inner and outer edges. A copper alloy sheet roller is wrapped around the outer edge, with a central pin rest with a horizontal groove on either side.

The item is similar to previous items recorded on the database, particularly SUR-DE474F, SUR-FC05C5 and BH-A546E2. A similar example can also be seen in in Egan and Pritchard (1991: 96) no. 440.

Measurements: length: 20.75mm, width: 16.71mm, thickness: 3.74mm, weight: 2.20 g.
