Description: | Copper alloy single loop buckle of medieval date. The frame is trapezoidal (L.13.51mm. W.20.48mm. T.1.90mm). The outer edge of the frame bears moulded decoration in the form of lobed knops. The strap bar is narrowed and circular in section and not recessed for the pin (L.25.14mm. W.11.21mm. T. 1.49mm). The pin is present. The upper plate is folded over the strap bar and has two rivet holes one of which has a rivet surviving through to the lower plate and is thin in section. The lower plate which is smaller is riveted in place by one rivet and is thin in section. The reverse of the outer edge is flat so that it is broadly D-shaped in section. There are traces of gold metal coating (gilding) on upper surface of the upper plate around the rivet and rivet hole and on the upper surface of the lower plate around the rivet. 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: | 1201
