Description: | A plain, tinned cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle of post-medieval date. The buckle is trapezoidal in shape with lobed protrusions at either end of the pin bar. Each outer edge is pointed. The outside edge of the buckle is bevelled while the reverse is flat. Otherwise complete, the buckle?s pin is missing; slight orange staining suggests an iron pin. The buckle dates from around 1620 to 1680. Whilst undecorated, in form the buckle is similar to an example illustrated in Whitehead (1996, page 82; fig. 514). In profile one end of the buckle appears raised, perhaps due to plough damage. | 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: | 1620
