Description: | Incomplete copper alloy medieval buckle with a central bar. The pin is missing and the frame covered in a green and black patina. The inside loop is rectangular and the larger outside loop oval with a pin notch. The bar is narrowed in the centre for the missing pin and is worn. It measures 21x23mm and weighs 2.30g.
It is similar to object 472 in Egan and Pritchard (1991) which dates from c.1400-c.1450. Another buckle of this type was found in London with the leather strap folded around the rectangular part of the frame and secured with two rivets through the leather to a rectangular mount (Egan and Pritchard 1991, pg 102). | 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: | 1400
