Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle pin. The pin is a sub-rectangle in plan. The tip is a blunt point, whereas the opposite terminal, in profile, forms a ?C? shape, which would have curled around the strap bar of a buckle frame. The upper surface, as the curl starts, is decorated with a single transverse linear ridge. The pin has a dark green/grey coloured patina. It measures 41.62mm long, 9.26mm wide and weighs 3.41g.
In Ottaway (Ottaway, P. and Rogers, N. 2002 Craft, Industry and Everyday Life: Finds From Medieval York York Archaeological Trust and CBA) there are similar examples, No. 14336, which are dated to the 14th century. | 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
