Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy spectacle or double-loop vesica-shaped buckle frame with part of one loop missing. The frame is flat-based and convex in section. The pin rest is formed by a slight transverse ridge, which does not extend to the edge of the point, protruding from the side of the loop. The strap bar is narrowed and has a protrusion at either end. The pin is missing, but would probably have been cast copper alloy. The frame is 55 mm mlong, 51.3 mm wide and 3.7 mm thick and the strap bar is 51.3 mm long and 5 mm thick. Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar example on page 61, No.365, which is dated to c.1550-1650.
