Description: | Distorted copper alloy double looped buckle frame with a central integral bar, pin missing. Medieval or Post-Medieval. Length (if straightened) 41mm, width 35mm and 3mm thick. Weight 7.60g.The loops are oval and almost identical although one of the loops is now bent an angle of almost 90ยบ to the plane of the frame. Both loops are slightly bevelled on the inside. The front of the frame is convex and the rear is flat. Each loop has a thickened outside edge to accommodate three crudely executed grooves, the central one functioning as a pin rest. These grooves are only just visible. The perimeter of the frame adjacent to the bar is slightly recessed to form angles and the bar is sub-rectangular in cross-section. At the centre of the bar is a deposit of iron staining and there is also iron staining on one of the outside edges of the frame only. The frame has a pale green patina over most of the surface and the metal appears to be in a stable condition.
