Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy single looped buckle with integral plate. The frame is incomplete with only one edge remaining due to alod breaks. Thge remained suggests the frame was oval. The integral plate is rectangular and rectangular in cross section with a slight taper from the loop end towards the strap end. It has a hole near the frame loop for the pin to loop through and two for rivets, one near the centre and one at the strap end. The strap end one still has a seperate copper alloy rivet through it. It is 35.6mm long, 12.7mm wide, 3.1mm thick (excluding the rivet) and weighs 5.17 grams. Whitehead (2003) illustrates a similar buckle with a complete frame loop (page 33, No.186) which he dates to c.1250-1400 AD.
