Title
Medieval shoe buckle
Description
English: An incomplete cast copper alloy double looped buckle dating to the Post Medieval period, circa AD1660-1800. The spindle is missing due to old breaks. This is a shoe buckle. The upper surface of the buckle has a moulded decoration of radiate scalloping at the apex of the loops and also at the centre of the frame, near to the pin bar. The sides of the buckle are waisted. The surfaces of the buckle have an even mid green patina and are worn due to movement in the plough soil.

Length: 33.72mm. Width: 22.4mm. Weight: 6.7g

A comparable buckle is recorded in Whitehead:2003, p99, no 620.
