Only the ornate outside edge of this frame survives. Measuring 21.9mm in length and 5.4mm in width, 2.10g in weight. The outside edge is expanded and decorated on its front face with three central transverse grooves. 4: An incomplete copper-alloy outside ornate edge of a probable oval shaped buckle frame, the rest of the frame is missing due to old breaks.
