Description: | Copper alloy buckle of Medieval date. The frame is generally oval, with an elaborate outer edge. The sides of the buckle are convex and generally oval in section. The outer edge is thickened and straight. The upper surface is convex and the reverse is generally flat so that it is D-shaped in section. Although heavily worn a series of lateral incised grooves can be distinguished on the upper surface. The bar is narrowed and offset and is generally circular in section. The copper alloy wire pin is bent around the bar, where it is rectangular in section, then tapers becoming circular in section. The pin appears to be broken off as it is very short, although it is very thin. Mid-green patina.
