Title
Medieval single loop buckle with integral plate
Description
English: An incomplete, cast copper-alloy single-looped buckle frame and integral plate of medieval date, c.1250-1500, missing its pin. Possibly a spur strap buckle (Whitehead 2003, 32). The artefact has an irregular oval-shaped frame with prominent protruding lip. The frame is D-shaped in cross-section and is attached to the strap bar, which is formed from a single piece of metal and has a gilded rectangular plate, with one hole at the base of the loop for the pin, and one remaining rivet in the centre of the strap bar. The strap bar diminishes in width after the gilded rectangular plate and has a broken end.

The entire artefact is 72.63mm in length, 26.51mm wide at the buckle frame, 11.40mm wide at the gilded plate, and 6.45mm wide at the broken end of the strap bar. It is approximately 3.64mm thick and weighs 10.11g.

CF: no. 186-188, Whitehead 2003.
