Description: | Cast copper alloy single-loop oval buckle with folded sheet copper alloy plate with trefoil terminal, used for armour. The wire pin has been made from a rolled sheet of copper alloy and then wrapped around the narrowed pin bar along with the recessed plate which holds the pin in place in the centre of the bar. One central rivet survives towards the terminal of the folded plate.
