Description: | The object is a Medieval buckle pin. It is made from cast copper alloy. In Ottaway there are similar examples, these are dated to the 14th to 15th centuries.
The pin is a sub-rectangle in plan, with rounded corners. The ?sharp? terminal is a blunt point. The opposite terminal, in profile forms a ?C? shape, which would have curled around the strap bar. This terminal does not appear to be broken. The upper surface, as the curl starts is decorated with a single perpendicular linear ridge.
The pin has a dark green/grey coloured patina.
The pin measures 40.8mm long, 11.3mm wide and weighs 2.86g. | 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: | 1300
