Description: | A cast copper alloy undecorated circular buckle frame with a cast copper alloy pin. The frame is oval in section. The frame has worn thin were the pin is situated. The pin is broken (length 32.93mm) and oval in section; the break is worn. The pin has been looped around the main frame of the buckle. The pin has been decorated with two ridges (only on the uppermost surface); the first has one incised line, the second three. The surface of the object has a smooth dark green patina. Buckles of this type date to the 13th - 14th century.
Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Egan & Pritchard, p58, ref: 32-8. | 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: | 1250
