Description: | Strap-end of composite type but made from just two sheets of copper alloy. 11 mm wide at the attachment end, it tapers to 9 mm wide before tapering more sharply to a cruciform terminal. One sheet is decorated with two saltires made from rocker-arm engraving. The sheets appear to be soldered together at the terminal, although there may possibly be a well-disguised copper-alloy rivet as well just before the terminal. There is a second copper-alloy rivet at the attachment end. 14th century.
