Description: | A Medieval two piece strap-end. It is tongue shaped (rectangular with a rounded closed end) and made by two copper alloy sheets being soldered together. It was probably also riveted at the open end, but this is missing. It measures 22.9mm x 12.8mm x 3.4mm, and weighs 2.04g. It has a light green patina and is dated to 1270-1350AD. A similar strap-end can be found in 'Dress accessories' (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 609).
