Description: | Copper alloy D-shaped buckle frame of late Roman date. The outer edge of the frame bears moulded decoration in the form of two inward facing dolphin heads now heavily worn. The eyes are represented by an incised dot, and incised lines represent the open mouths of the dolphins. The reverse of the outside edge is flat and undecorated so that it is broadly D-shaped in section. The short edges of the frame are slightly convex and are generally oval in section. The bar is circular in section, undecorated, and not recessed for the pin. The pin is missing. Patchy mid-green patina. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 200
