Description: | A copper-alloy frame and pin from single-loop buckle of probable late 12th to late 14th century AD date (G. Egan and F. Pritchard; 1991; pp. 76).The frame is roughly D-shaped and has a moulded pin rest at the centre of the outer edge. This pin rest is demarcated by two pairs of horizontal ridges - one at the top and one at the bottom - and consists of a wide, flat area with a rounded projection at the centre and three incised horizontal grooves. The top and bottom sides of the frame are of sub-circular section and the offset axis bar is of sub-oval section. The pin has been wound loosely around the axis bar and is made from a thin copper-alloy wire.The piece measures 19mm long, 20.1mm high and 3.7mm thick. The weight is 2.46g.
