Description: | A copper alloy Medieval buckle pin. It is a cast pin, rectangular in section, with one terminal curved round to form a loop. It is 3.43mm in width and tapers towards its point which is incomplete due to old breaks, but can be seen to curve upwards at the tip. There is some ribbed decoration 9.45mm from the broken point, but the metal is too worn to define it. The pin measures 41.45mm in surviving length, and the width across the loop is 11.18mm. It weighs 2.82g. Similar examples from Medieval London date to the fourteenth century.
