Description: | Cast copper alloy double-loop asymmetrical spur or shoe buckle frame. The frame has a flat base and a convex profile in cross-section. The shape of the frame is sub-rectangular and it has a simple, central, narrowed strap bar, flush with the frame. The pin is missing, together with any plate or strap. The rectangular loop has a trefoil shaped outer edge with a single transverse moulded groove. The rounded end of the frame has a transverse moulded groove following the curve and four engraved oblique lines from the outside edge to the inside edge of the frame in the area where the pin would have rested.Whitehead (1996) illustrates a very similar example on page 91, no.572, which he dates to c.1575-1700.Read (1988) illustrates another similar example on page 141, No.891, which he dates to c.1600-1700.
