Description: | Medieval copper alloy D-shaped buckle frame, probably dating to the 12th/ 13th century, with a replacement pin. The buckle frame measures 25.2x31.9mm and weighs 18.32g.The outside edge is angled and curves outwards and downwards. It is 9.2mm wide and quite chunky at 4.4mm thick. At the centre, creating a space for the pin to rest, are three 4mm diameter protruding (3.5-4mm) roundels in a triangle formation. Another three roundels are either end of the frame outside the axis bar, which is narrowed and circular in section (4.4mm diameter).The pin is sheet copper alloy and has a shiny dark green patina. The frame is light green and rough to the touch.Nick Griffiths comments: The shape is like the ?12th century ones, but it is very solid and crude - I'd guess perhaps 12th/ 13th century.
