Description: | Cast copper alloy single loop oval buckle frame. The frame has a narrowed and offset strap bar, 15.5mm long. The frame is D shaped in cross section with a flat back, 1.7mm wide by 2.1mm thick. The outer edge of the frame is widened and ornate with lobed knops at either end and between them a widened edge divided by 7 cross grooves, the central groove is larger and presumably acted as a pin rest. The entire frame is 19.6mm long, 16.5mm wide and 2.6mm thick; it weighs 1.87 grams. Egan and Pritchard (1991) page 76-7 illustrate similar buckles and suggest they date from the late 12th to the late 14th centurys.
