Description: | A copper-alloy sword-belt buckle of medieval date (G. Egan; 1991; pp. 100).The frame is rectangular, has flat surfaces, slightly bevelled inner edges and a decorative notch on each corner, plus one at the centre of the horizontal top edge. There is a central axis bar and, at the mid point of the left hand vertical edge (as you look at it), a pin slot. A rectangular tab with central hole protrudes from the bottom edge of the buckle and probably served to attach a sword to the buckle. The object is slightly bent and the surface has traces of a silvering or tinning.The buckle measures 31.8mm long by 29.3mm high and 2.6mm thick; it weighs 6.97g.
