Description: | Medieval copper alloy buckle, probably of late 13th to 14th century date
The buckle has a trapezoidal frame with integral plate and is near complete with an overall length of 41.27mm. The buckle frame is of sub-square section and is widest at the outside edge with a width of 15.59mm and has a width of 11.47mm on the inside edge. The plate has a damaged hole for the missing pin. The integral plate is rigid and was attached by an integral rivet on the rear of the plate near the frame, and by an iron rivet at the inside edge of the plate, as evidenced by iron corrosion on the terminal. The outside edge of the plate has a rectangular moulding 6.15mm wide before a convex rounded section (4.25mm wide) and terminating in a flat oval plate (6.50mm wide). The surface preservation on the buckle is variable, and where the surface survives it has a brown patina. The buckle weighs 3.2g. | 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: | 1200
