Description: | Cast copper alloy double loop buckle frame and pin. The frame has trapizoid loops and is incomplete with 90% of one loop missing. The frame is rectangular in section. The outer side of the remaining loop has lobes at each corner and the centre is widened into a triangle with a central pin notch. There is incised line along this edge running near and parralel to the side of the loop. There are lobes either end of the narrowed strap bar. The pin is probably made of copper alloy sheet and has been bent around the strap bar; it is 22.4mm long, 3.3mm wide at the bar and tapers gradually to the point. The remaining frame is 19.1mm long, 23.5mm wide, 2.0mm thick and the entire thing weighs 3.81 grams.
The buckle is similar to Whitehead (2003:84) No.524, which he dates to c.1620-1680. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
