Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy buckle of post-medieval date. A double-looped buckle which probably dates from the early 16th to mid 17th century AD. Only half of the frame remains, the other having been broken off. It is roughly D-shaped and has a pointed pin rest and slot at the centre of the outer edge. The sheet plate is rectangular and has been bent around the central bar. There is a slot for the now-missing pin. The two faces of the plate were originally held in place by a single iron rivet at the centre of the inside edge. The surface of the plate and frame have traces of a white metal coating. Overall, the object measures 36.6mm long by 19.6mm wide and 4.8mm thick. It weighs 5.27g.
