Description: | A broken cast copper alloy medieval buckle. The buckle was single looped, probably with a trapezoidal frame, but as most of the frame is missing it is hard to be sure. Just the pin bar and the start of the 2 edges survives, along with the pin, which is formed from copper alloy wire. There was also a plate, which was probably also trapezoidal. However the end is damaged and it is not clear how much is missing. There is a large perforation in the centre of the plate, roughly square in shape, presumably to attach the buckle to a strap or belt. However it seems likely that this was not the original attachment point but a crude repair after the original attachment had broken.
