Description: | Circular Medieval buckle of copper alloy. It is complete and covered in a black patina. The surface is covered in a varnish. It has an external diameter of 19mm and an internal diameter of 12mm. It wieghs 3.12g.The frame is undecorated and the sheet copper alloy pin is unconstricted. It is similar to objects 31 and 32 in Egan and Pritchard (1991). For circular buckles, the leather strap would have been attached directly to the frame. Buckles, such as this, with diameters of less than 20mm are thought to have been from shoes (Egan and Pritchard 1991, pg 57). They date from 1250-1450 (Egan and Pritchard pg 22).
