Description: | A corroded single-looped cast copper-alloy buckle of medieval date. The buckle is of oval form with an offset and slightly narrowed pin bar (Thickness: 1.7mm). The pin is of cast construction and tapers to a blunted point. At a collar it is decorated with a pair of transverse grooves. The pin is bent at a slight angle as a result of old damage. The plain frame is bevelled both externally and internally on both faces; the internal bevelling is steeper. The artefact has a largely dark brown patina with some orange corrosion product. Buckles of similar form and dimensions can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 70; fig. 42).
