Description: | Late mediaeval copper alloy circular buckle frame with central bar, and formerly with iron pin. It is 19.5mm in diameter and 3mm in thickness, the central bar being 14mm long within the frame. An iron residue from the buckle-pin remains attached to the central bar. The back or lower surface is flat, but the upper surface of the frame is bevelled towards the outer edge. In size it resembles the example in Egan and Pritchard page 66 ill. 216. Being of copper alloy it may have been used to fasten a spur, and could be so late as the mid-sixteenth century. | Subjects: | Possible spur fastening | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
