Description: | Rigid plate and ovate frame from a composite copper alloy buckle of mediaeval type. The ovate frame is 25mm wide and 17mm from bin-bar to outer face. The frame is 2.0mm thick and 2.5mm broad, and is domed on the upper surface in profile and flat on the back, with a distinct projecting tip at the centre of the facing edge where the pin-tip would fall. The cast-in plate-attachment consists of two prongs of different lengths. There is first a rectangular extension behind the pin-bar of 10mm, with a central slot and hole through which the (lacking) pin would have been mounted. From the edge of these one has a prong 15mm long and the other only 8mm long, tapering from within towards the outer edge. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
