Description: | An undecorated circular buckle frame made of cast copper alloy. The frame is circular in plan and rectangular, with rounded corners, in section. There is a trace of iron on the under and upper face of the frame suggesting the pin was originally iron, which does not exist now. The surface of the buckle has a dark green/grey patina. It weighs 0.98g, and measures 14.13mm diameter. In Egan and Pritchard (Egan G. and Pritchard F. 2002 Dress Accessories Boydell Press) there is a similar buckle, No. 28 which, it is suggested, is a shoe buckle. They date to the late 13th 15th centuries.
