Description: | A copper-alloy medieval buckle. The buckle has a plate that is integral to the sub-oval frame. The frame has an elaborate end, expanding at the ends. A pin hole on the integral plate is filled with ferrous corrosion from an iron pin. The plate has an expanded front and narrowed end. It has two attachment holes. The obverse of the frame and plate are slightly rounded and the reverse is dished. The obverse retains traces of gilding. A similar example is illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 35; 205) which is cited as dating from the 13th or 14th century and this example is likely to be of a similar date. | 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
