Description: | A medieval cast copper alloy buckle with integral buckle plate. The buckle frame is double looped; one loop is square, the other semi-circular. The edge of the square loop is a separate piece, probably iron as there is corrosion at the join with the main frame, but not actually visible as there is a copper sheet roller around it. The semicircular loop curves upwards, and the loop itself is angled in towards the pin bar, and decorated with 3 incised grooves at each shoulder. The pin bar itself is again probably iron judging from the corrosion where it is drilled through the frame, but again is not visible as the copper sheet buckle plate is folded round it. The plate is notched to take the pin, which is also made from copper sheet. The plate has a large central perforation in one face, and 2 smaller ones in the corners through both plates (which the finder has joined with a short length of modern wire). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Evans, David - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
