Description: | A cast copper alloy annular buckle of probable late fourteenth century date. The buckle measures 45.7mm in diameter and the circular cross-section has a diameter of 4.6mm. It weighs 19.9g. The circular frame is undecorated and there is no constriction for the pin, which has been separately cast. At one end of the pin is a loop which is wrapped around the frame and the other end tapers slightly towards the rounded end. On the front of the pin, adjacent to the loop, there is worn ridged grip with four incised transverse lines. Two similar buckles can be seen in 'Meols: The Archaeology of the North Wirral Coast' (2007, p. 87, nos. 430 and 432).
